Rory McIlroy 'Frustrated' After Changing Swing to Chase More Distance, Speed

Rory McIlroy shot 10-over through 36 holes at the Players Championship and missed the projected cut line by 10 strokes.

After his second round, McIlroy spoke with reporters about his frustrations regarding his swing changes.
