Darren Clarke has claimed it's "only a question of time" before compatriot and fellow Open Championship winner Rory McIlroy, without a major triumph since 2014, wins big again.

Clarke and McIlroy played together in practice today at Royal St George's ahead of the opening round of the 149th Open tomorrow.
