Quotes
 
“Good golf at Augusta feels like boring golf," McIlroy said after arriving at the Augusta National Golf Club.
 
"And I think that’s something that I’ve always struggled with because that’s not my game. To me, it’s the biggest test of discipline and the biggest test of patience of the year for me.
 
“It’s nice to try to play my way into form … obviously with the main focus being getting myself ready for the Masters next week.”
