Rory McIlroy's looking forward to some easier conditions when golf's Travelers Championship gets underway today.
The Masters champion was among several high-profile players who struggled at last week's US Open on a punishing course at Oakmont, as he narrowly avoided the cut.
McIlroy says the past few tournaments have felt especially difficult.

Meanwhile, It's a big week on the LPGA Tour, with the KPMG Women's PGA Championship taking place in Texas.
Leona Maguire represents the Irish interest - the Cavan woman tees off at shortly before 20-past-two Irish time.
