After his win in China at the UBS Hing Kong Open, U.S. Open Champion Rory McIlroy appeared on the Golf Channel's Morning Drive. In their traditional 'Champions Tuesday' slot.
The 22-year old Northern Irishman let out that he had in fact trying to shake a virus off now for a few weeks as he battled to chase down Luke Donald for a shot at the European Tour's money title.
"My energy levels just haven't been 100 percent. Just got more tests done today and have to wait on the results."
"But I feel fine. Need to do all I can do to catch Luke Donald."
The two-time winner in 2011 and No. 2 ranked player in the world will need to win the Dubai World Championship this week, and have Donald finish no better than ninth if he was to have any chance of taking the European money title away from the World's No. 1 ranked player.
Jokingly, McIlroy continued on to say, "You make it sound as if I'm on my last leg. It's not that bad."
Donald is trying to become the first player ever to win the money titles on both the PGA and European Tour's in the same year.
