Rory McIlroy missed the cut last week for the first time in 30 PGA Tour events but while underlying statistics suggest a deterioration in form, here's why the Florida-swing offers cause for optimism.
Yeah bless him. Must be hard competing against all these automatons without families they maybe missing.
He has been cut so much slack since his last major.
So many corner's turned, new philosophies & techniques.
The way some people go on about him is like someone saying borussia Dortmund are the pinnacle of European football.

In relation to the others at the top of the World list, he can't.
Compared to the average club golfer he can.

That's a harsh thing to say.
There's only 113 better putters on PGA tour alone better than him.
He's a young man, give him time for him to haul himself up that list.
Of course being outside top 100 in practically anything else except driving hinders him but it's not his fault there are better golfers than him about. And have been for better part of a decade.
Poor forgotten mite.

By people focussing on a decade ago.
Other than by fanboys and the BBC he has not been in genuine contention with the other big boys (& There are a lot of them) for a long time. If he gets close he chokes.
Over a decade you could argue Chelsea are better than city, Klitschko is better than fury & Usain bolt is the fastest man in the world by a mile.

He needs to get back to his old enjoyment of the game and play without too much thought, and that as others have said probably means getting a caddie to 'help' by bouncing ideas and thoughts off.
He is probably also missing his new family so ought to be cut some slack.
