Golf

Rory McIlroy was happy to be back at The K Club.

Good to be back at @thekclub for the Horizon @IrishOpen_ this week. Brings back a lot of memories of 2016 especially when standing in the fairway on 16 pic.twitter.com/z6v931GZXC

Yannik Paul was philosophical about his Ryder Cup omission.

I am obviously disappointed to not make the team. If you are in 3rd place for 90% of the time you want to end up being on the team. I just didn’t finish high enough on the leaderboard the last few events to earn my spot back.
Good luck to @RyderCupEurope - bring the back
