Aug 24 (Reuters) - Rory McIlroy has set his sights on finishing a so-so season on a strong note as he prepares this week for The Barclays, the first of four FedExCup events that conclude the 2015-16 U.S. PGA Tour.
Though the world number five clinched an emotional victory at the Irish Open in May, his first triumph in his national open, he has failed to win on the PGA Tour despite several close calls and missed the cut in two of the four majors.
"I'm trying to judge my year on wins," McIlroy told reporters on Wednesday at Bethpage Black in Farmingdale, New York.
