McIlroy arrives in India with fresh style and renewed spark

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 18:02 · Archive

Rory McIlroy is competing in the DP World India Championship in a new look of baggy golf pants, inspired by fellow golfer Tommy Fleetwood.

Rory McIlroy has arrived at the DP World India Championship in New Delhi sporting baggy golf pants as part of his effort to inject freshness into his game since completing the career Grand Slam. McIlroy said he has admired Tommy Fleetwood's style over the past year and described wide-legged pants as 'the in-thing, the fashionable thing'.

When asked how the baggy trousers feel during play, McIlroy acknowledged they remain a work in progress. 'These hit a little low, maybe a little short,' he said. 'I understand they are maybe not as well-fitting as they need to be, but they are a work in progress.'

Beyond fashion, McIlroy is also developing other innovations to sharpen his competitive edge. He plans to replicate his 'performance trailer', which he currently uses in the United States to aid fitness and recovery during PGA Tour events. He aims to have a similar setup for when he plays on the European tour. McIlroy said the idea was inspired by tennis player Novak Djokovic and fellow golfer Justin Rose.
