Rory McIlroy faded out of contention at the 2019 U.S. Open after shooting a one-over 72 in the final round Sunday.
The 30-year-old was within striking distance down five strokes entering Round 4, but he couldn't keep up with the leaders and finished five strokes under par for the tournament at Pebble Beach, California.
He entered the clubhouse in a tie for ninth place after starting the round alone in sixth.
McIlroy wasn't able to live up to his lofty expectations entering the week, but he was still able to finish inside the top 10 for the 11th time in 14 events during the 2019 season.
