Rory McIlroy hoping Olympic gold can help fill a void of 10 years without silver major trophies.
The Northern Irishman says his focus was “pretty high” at the start of two days of preparations.
He says he has taken a full nine days away from playing golf since missing the cut in the British Open .
Shane Lowry carried the flag for Ireland in the opening ceremonies on Friday .
McIlroy has said in recent weeks it will take time to measure where an Olympic gold medal fits in the landscape of golf.
He would love nothing better than to give an answer based more on experience than speculation.
“I think as golf is in the Olympics for a longer period of time.. I don't know if anything will be able to sit alongside the majors,” he said.
