Rory McIlroy is cutting back on the number of PGA Tour events in which he’ll compete this year. He wouldn’t mind seeing the tour make more cuts of its own, including the number of tournaments it conducts.

Rory McIlroy said Tuesday he understands how the golf consumer might be fatigued with all the different forms of the game that now exist and even suggested lessening the number of events on the PGA Tour could help.

With Scottie Scheffler returning after his Christmas injury, Rory McIlroy had a little fun at the World No. 1’s expense.
