Irish and American encounter to festoon WGC-Cadillac
With top class golfers making their way to Florida, an interesting question that is making rounds all around the circle of golf is regarding the battle between the Irish golfer Rory McIlroy and the American golf legend Tiger Woods.
Both these players have become the hot spots of discussion as the date of the event closes by.
With a total purse of $8,500,000, all golfers will definitely try their level best to change things in their favour, but for Woods or McIlroy it is not about money any more.
It is about winning and winning with an edge. It is important to have a brief overview of both golfers in order to better understand the chances each one has.
Starting with the senior one, Tiger Woods has been facing complications in effectively pursuing his golf run.
After a long time, when the legendary golfer made way into the course, he was not able to deliver the performance anticipated.
Following a long series of domestic and professional complications, Woods was finally able to stabilise his condition with golf, but unfortunately, it did not go as he had planned.
At the Pebble Beach, he was unable to deliver his best against his long time rival Phil Mickelson.
A similar kind of performance was observed at the Accenture Open that turned out to be a surprise package of golf season this time.
He battled to make his way against Nick Watney, who is the current Cadillac Champion, but failed.
As if all this was not enough, the upcoming launch of the book ‘The Big Miss’ has further added to the woes of the golfer.
Although, he has refused to make any comments on the move, there remains less doubt in understanding that this has played its role of distraction for the golfer.
On the other hand, when considering McIlroy, it is important to mention that his prime agenda at present is to cruise towards the first position. He has not been able to perform as well as he wanted to.
His graduation from the third to the second position has more been because of Lee Westwood’s weakness, which he has been able to materialise on.
He is still a couple to shots behind to make it to the first position and he will be doing his best this time to make sure it happens.
Also, it is important to mention that Nick Watney, the current champion of Cadillac is definitely going to be a strong opponent for both of them.
