Rory McIlroy told he’s the ‘only one’ who can break long-standing golf record

Rory McIlroy is the clear front-runner to win a sixth Race to Dubai title, which would put him two off record holder Colin Montgomerie, who has backed the Northern Irishman to surpass him

Rory McIlroy is poised to win a 6th European Order of Merit title this year

Long-standing European Race to Dubai record holder Colin Montgomerie has told Rory McIlroy that he’s the only golfer who’s in a strong position to break his record.

McIlroy, 35, a four-time major winner, has five Race to Dubai titles, and he’ll chase a sixth this year. Victory would push McIlroy two behind eight-time winner Montgomerie, who set the record in 2005.

Montgomerie won seven in a row between 1993 and 1999, before enduring a six-year wait to win an eighth. McIlroy has competed in eight competitions, accumulating 3,236.93 points in the Race to Dubai, with the Northern Irishman commanding a big lead over Adam Scott.

“If Rory does it (catches up) in the Race to Dubai as they call it now, hopefully I’ll be able to fly out there and congratulate him because I’ll know how difficult it is to achieve that,” Montgomerie told the Daily Mail.
