McGinley warns of stress factor on golf's young elite

Paul McGinley foresees more of golf’s young elite like Rory McIlroy suffering injuries because of the stress they are putting on their bodies.

Former World No1 McIlroy, who recently admitted to experiencing an irregular heartbeat, is now outside the top 10 largely due to a fractured rib which ruled him out for a significant spell last season.

McGinley points out the Holywood star won’t be the only one to suffer ailments because of their exertions on the course and in the gym but stresses McIlroy has to consider what impact continuing with this current regime will have on his health going into his thirties.
