Rory McIlroy can’t help reflecting on the amazing highs and lows of his year in golf

It's a wild ride that's only just beginning and he knows it

"On the course, in my mind I think I've changed a little bit too. Everyone says: 'Let it happen, don't force it', but I don't think that's the right way to go for me. I've got to say to myself, 'look, I'm good enough, I'm going to make this happen and win' instead of shrugging: 'Oh, we'll just go out and see what happens.' I'm getting a little bit more ruthless and maybe there's a bit more self- belief too..

"Being number one is not my principal aim - the Majors are what I play for - but if I do well in those big tournaments, then the number one spot should take care of itself. It's a great goal."
