Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee says that he has concerns that Rory McIlroy could follow Tiger Woods’ destructive path if he continues his “extensive weightlifting.”
In a NBC Sports conference call previewing the Florida Swing, Chamblee said that the “only thing that gives me concern” about McIlroy, 26, is the pounding that he puts on his body in the gym.
“I say it with a lot of trepidation, because it’s a different era for sure,” Chamblee said, “and I don’t know the full extent of what he’s doing, but when I see the things he’s doing in the gym, I think of what happened to Tiger Woods.
