Rory McIlroy focuses on form ahead of Turkish test after winning fitness fight

“I’ve started to train the way I was before the injury again, and I’m happy about that.“

Former world number one Rory McIlroy believes he is close to full fitness as he seeks to end an injury-disrupted season in style by claiming a third Race to Dubai title.

McIlroy ruptured a ligament in his left ankle during a game of football with friends on July 4, ruling him out of the Scottish Open and the defence of his Open and WGC-Bridgestone Invitational titles.
