Rory McIlroy said his sudden and surprising decision to resign from the PGA Tour policy board was because he had so many commitments “something had to give”.

Following an opening round of one-under par 71 at the $10.5 million DP World Tour Championship, McIlroy explained his move.

“There are only so many hours in the day, and there are only so many days in the week, and I’ve got a lot going on in my life right now,” McIlroy said.

“I am trying to be a world-class golfer, trying to be a good husband and a good father. I’ve got a lot of stuff going on,” said the world No 2.
