PGA Championship: Rory McIlroy has 'clear road ahead' to push for more majors and takes 'relaxed approach' to Aronimink

Rory McIlroy believes he has a ‘clear road ahead’ to challenge for more major titles and is taking a ‘relaxed approach’ into this week's PGA Championship.

McIlroy arrives at Aronimink Golf Club looking to become the first player since Jordan Spieth in 2015 to win the first two majors of a calendar year, a month on from his successful title defence at The Masters.

The Northern Irishman's one-shot win at Augusta National was his sixth major title and came a year after dramatically completing the career Grand Slam at the same event, with McIlroy among the pre-tournament favourites to challenge for more major success in Pennsylvania.

McIlroy experienced a post-Masters slump after 'climbing his Everest' with Grand Slam glory last season, failing to contend in the next two majors, although insists he feels different heading into the PGA Championship.
