data-mm-id=”_1y53ses9f”>Rory McIlroy’s weird year continued on Thursday in the first round of the DP World Tour’s 2024 BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth Club in England.On the par-5 12th hole, McIlroy hit a bomb of a drive 332 yards down the fairway and had just 178 yards to the flagstick. For the world No. 3, that’s an easy 8-iron. But there was nothing easy about this 8-iron shot. McIlroy’s clubhead snapped off the shaft at impact and he still somehow managed to not only find the green in two but stuff the approach to seven feet to set up an insane eagle chance. Even McIlroy was in utter disbelief at what happened.
