McIlroy: I’m gunning for wounded Tiger

RORY McIlroy has thrown down the Ryder Cup gauntlet to Tiger Woods after declaring, I’m desperate to beat you.

The world No 1 is sidelined with a minor neck injury but is expected to recover and line up for the USA against Europe at Celtic Manor in Wales this October.

But Northern Ireland superstar McIlroy insists he is relishing the prospect of toppling childhood hero Woods in the battle for global golf domination.
