Alright, let’s talk about keeping up with Rory McIlroy news. Someone asked me the other day how I stay in the loop, and it got me thinking about my own little routine, my process, you know?
It wasn’t always like this. Back in the day, you waited for the newspaper, maybe caught some highlights on the sports channel late at night. That was it. If Rory had a good round, you might read a paragraph or two the next morning. Simple times.
My Current Way
Now? It’s totally different. It’s all instant, right there on the phone mostly.
So, here’s what I usually do:
- First thing, often when I grab my coffee, I’ll pull out my phone.
- I don’t just randomly browse. I’ve got a couple of sports apps I trust. I open those up specifically.
- Then, I usually scan the golf section first. I’m specifically looking for his name or big tournament news.
- I read the quick summaries, check the scores if he played recently. I’m mostly interested in his performance, how he’s hitting the ball, what the scores are.
- Sometimes I’ll specifically search his name within the app or on a general news aggregator I like, just to see if anything else pops up.
Filtering Stuff Out
There’s a ton of noise out there, honestly. Lots of opinions, gossip, predictions… I try to skip most of that. I learned over time that focusing just on the results and maybe some official interviews gives me a clearer picture. I don’t need to get bogged down in speculation.
So, I consciously filter. I look for reports from the major sports outlets or the official tour sites. If it looks like clickbait or just someone’s random hot take, I usually just scroll right past it.
Wrapping It Up
Basically, my practice is pretty straightforward. I check reliable sources on my phone, I focus on actual results and key news, and I try to ignore the fluff. It’s become a habit, something I just do during the season, especially on tournament weekends. Takes maybe 5-10 minutes most days, and it keeps me updated enough to know what’s going on with Rory’s game. That’s my process, plain and simple.
