Rory McIlroy reflected on a composed third-round 68 at the DP World Tour Championship as he pursues a seventh Race to Dubai title. He described the round as controlled, with a handful of birdies and steady golf that left him pleased with how he handled the course. McIlroy said the putter was responding and that he felt in command of his game heading into the final day.
Acknowledging the challenge that remains, he expressed confidence that momentum and his experience in big events could be decisive. McIlroy reiterated that he will stick to his game plan and treat Sunday the same way he has the rest of the week — one shot at a time — as he looks to close out the tournament and add another Race to Dubai crown to his record.
