Rory McIlroy got blown out, 6&5, by Ian Poulter in the opening round of the WGC-Dell Match Play.
And this tee shot on the par-4 5th hole pretty much sums up the 31-year old golf star’s day at Austin Country Club: a way left bomb that lands in a neighbor’s pool, which abuts the 5th green at the Pete Dye track.
The PGA Tour’s Shotlink graphic describes McIlroy’s shot as “351 yards to unknown.”
But it’s definitely in the pool.
