I didnt really hit many putts, McIlroy said. It was more of a psychology lesson than anything else.The goal was to making McIlroys putting more instinctive and reactive, instead of being bogged down with mechanics.It has worked so far. Through three rounds, he is ranked second in strokes gained-putting, gaining more than seven-and-a-half shots on the field on the greens.McIlroys third-round 67 put him in the penultimate group, just two shots back of Henrik Stenson.I cant really ask for much more, McIlroy said.
