Flew to America to play on the PGA Tour, and in four starts missed two cuts. His best finish was T-20th at the Genesis Open. On the Monday before the Arnold Palmer Invitational, talked with Brad Faxon, who gave him some thoughts on putting. McIlroy used those keys to have his best putting week on the PGA Tour, taking a career-low 100 putts to win the Palmer by three shots over Bryson DeChambeau. McIlroy birdied five of his last six holes on the way to a bogey-free 64.
The next week at the WGC-Dell Match Play, an event he won in 2015, he lost two of his three matches and didn’t make it out of group play. Was T-5th at The Masters, he was in the final pairing with Patrick Reed and shot 74 finishing six shots back. Was 2nd at the BMW PGA Championship, 2 shots back of winner Francesco Molinari. T-8th at the Memorial. Missed the cut at both the Play-
ers Championship and U.S. Open, his third straight missed cut at a U.S. Open.
Bounced back at the Open Championship finishing T-2nd, two shots back of winner Francesco Molinari. Shot a final round 73 at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational to finish T-6th.

McIlroy used those keys to have his best putting week on the PGA Tour, taking a career-low 100 putts to win the Palmer by three shots over Bryson DeChambeau. McIlroy birdied five of his last six holes on the way to a bogey-free 64.
