Former major champion Rich Beem reflects on Rory McIlroy's impressive back-to-back PGA Tour victories ahead of the PGA Championship and looks at whether he can continue his impressive form at Valhalla...

123bet I don't know if there's enough superlatives in the dictionary to express how fun it is to watch McIlroy right now. The way he played Quail Hollow over the weekend, taking on the golf course by bringing out the driver at every opportunity, was just a blast.

It was like the harder he was swinging the ball, the straighter it seemed to go. He was on the verge of dismantling the golf course on the Friday but it didn't kick in until the Sunday, when he showed just what he can do and left everybody else with no chance.

I feel bad for Xander Schauffele a bit because of how much everybody's talking about how he didn't step up on the final day. His putting wasn't great and he looked a little tentative, although he was never going to keep up when Mcllroy kicked it into high gear - the performance was almost otherworldly!

You would think that playing with Shane 123bet Lowry at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans last month will have allowed McIlroy to take the reins off a bit and find this form, playing with a bit more freedom and just having fun - a bit like playing as a young kid.
