Thank you for all your support and best wishes. I hope to be back on the course as soon as I can.”

On Monday, Rory McIlroy announced that he suffered a total rupture of his ATFL (the anterior talofibular ligament and the one most commonly sprained) in his ankle while playing soccer with friends Saturday. McIlroy posted a photograph on Instagram with his leg in a boot as he balanced on crutches.
