McIlroy eyes majors, Ryder Cup in 'pivotal' 2025

McIlroy, preparing to make his 2025 US PGA Tour debut at the Pebble Beach Pro-Am this week, said he expects to pare back his schedule by some five events, with the Open Championship in Portrush and the Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black in New York looming large as he considers the season.

"I think every year's a pivotal year," the 35-year-old Northern Ireland star said. "I think there's a couple of things this year that make it maybe a little more so for me.

"The Open goes back to Portrush, so playing a major championship pretty much at home is a big thing.

"Then playing an away Ryder Cup for me, I've alluded to this a lot, but I feel like winning an away Ryder Cup is one of the toughest things to do in golf at the minute. Obviously the Europeans have an opportunity to do that, which would be really cool."

McIlroy's 2024 included a runner-up finish to Bryson DeChambeau at the US Open, but it's been 10 years since he captured a major.

The Masters at Augusta National in April will offer him another chance to compete his career Grand Slam, while the PGA Championship will be played at Quail Hollow -- where he has won the Wells Fargo Championship four times.

As he considers the best way to prepare for golf's top events, McIlroy said he would play the minimum 15 US tour events needed to maintain his playing status, along with a select number of DP World Tour events.

"I played 27 events last year," he said. "I think to fulfil both minimums I need to play around 22 so that's what I'll do ... That's an extra 35 days at home, and that's something that I want to do."

McIlroy acknowledged that he's making his plans in a climate of continuing uncertainty.
'Golf is golf'
He believes the election of US President Donald Trump may have removed some obstacles to a deal between the established tours and the Saudi-backed LIV Golf.

But even though he thinks a deal "should and will be done" he added: "it doesn't solve the problem of what the landscape of golf looks like going forward.

"I'd say the biggest impediment is maybe the differing visions of what golf should look like in the future," McIlroy said.

With golf fans now also drawn by popular YouTube influencers and newer products like the tech-driven TGL that McIlroy and Tiger Woods launched this month, McIlroy said the PGA Tour should consider paring back.

"I think 47 or 50 tournaments a year is definitely too many," McIlroy said, noting that the TGL season lasts only two months.

"So to scale it back a little bit and maybe have a little more scarcity in some of the stuff that we do, like the NFL, I think mightn't be a bad thing," McIlroy said.

But McIlroy insisted that the push to engage fans should not "dumb down" golf.

"Golf is golf at the end of the day," he said. "First and foremost we're professional golfers. We want to go out there and shoot the best score possible that we can and try to beat each other.

"Hopefully people find that entertaining, and if not, then I don't know what to tell them."

Saquon Barkley left speechless after first Super Bowl title: 'You can't use words'

Philadelphia officials estimated more than 1 million people would gather for the Eagles' Super Bowl victory parade

On Friday, a sea of fans wearing Eagles green lined Philly's Broad Street to take in the festivities.

The Eagles' defense delivered a strong performance, sacking Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes six times and forcing two interceptions en route to a 40-22 victory Sunday in New Orleans. 

Five days later, supporters got a chance to cheer on the team in their hometown.

The scene appeared to leave star running back Saquon Barkley in awe.

"You can't use words to describe this," Barkley told a reporter as he rode an open-top bus in the parade.

SAQUON BARKLEY PROCLAIMS NEXT GOAL AFTER DREAM EAGLES SEASON: 'WHY NOT WIN ANOTHER SUPER BOWL?'

Barkley then spoke about the enjoyment he was experiencing.

"Every time I think Philly can't take it to another level, it takes it to a whole 'nother level. Me and my family are just happy and honored to be a part of this organization, be a part of this city. This city deserves it all and here we are.

"I might be having too much fun."

The three-time Pro Bowler then declared Eagles fans the "best fans in the world."

"It definitely exceeded expectations. I saw a little clip on it the other day [from] 2017 when they won the first Super Bowl. We got the best fans in the world," he said when asked whether the celebration surpassed his expectations.

Philadelphia is known for having some of country's most passionate fans, but those supporters have had a limited number of championships to celebrate over the past few decades.

The Eagles's latest Super Bowl title is the third pro championship in Philly in the last 40 years. The Phillies won the World Series in 2008, and the Eagles defeated the New England Patriots in the 2018 Super Bowl.

"You get a little greedy and start thinking about the future and this brings you back to the moment," said Barkley.
