Irish Open Golf 2010 - Rory McIlroy
20-year old Rory McIlroy needs little introduction as his rise to fame and golfing fortune have been headline news all season for the past couple of years. He comes to the Irish Open aiming to win it for the first time and he will no doubt be one of the favourites in the Irish Open Golf Betting. Rory proved himself to be an outstanding links player when, as an amateur, he was very prominent on the British Open leaderboard at Carnoustie and it is a style of golf course that he relishes. That should well stand him in good stead at the Killarney Club and he has more than enough talent to win this tournament ahead of playing in his first Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor.

2010 Form
It has been a breakthrough year for Rory Mcilroy with a big win on the PGA Tour to his name already as he continues his rise up the rankings and the golf world. He won the Quail Hollow Championships in Charlotte with a stunning final round 62 to the delight of Irish golf fans. If he can recapture that form at the Killarney Club and the Irish Open then he is almost impossible to stop, there is no doubting that he will want to play well in Ireland ahead of the Ryder Cup which is sure to be looking large on his mind at this late stage of the Summer.
Mcilroy is also coming off of a good British open at St Andrews, he shot three good rounds to finish in a tie for third place so he is clearly coming into the Irish Open full of confidence.
