Rory McIlroy: Shinnecock Hills 'won battle over me' at US Open, admits world number two

World number two Rory McIlroy finished six over par at the US Open at Shinnecock Hills, admitting the course 'won the battle over me.' The 37-year-old Masters champion carded a final round of 73, featuring three birdies and four bogeys, ending his bid for a second US Open title. A poor Saturday round, in which he made five bogeys and finished seven shots behind leader Wyndham Clark, effectively ended his challenge.
