Rory McIlroy aiming for driving consistency

Rory McIlroy admits that he must improve his driving ahead of the Duba Desert Classic.

Rory McIlroy has admitted that he will be concentrating on improving his driving ahead of the Dubai Desert Classic next week.

The 22-year-old finished runner-up to Robert Rock at the Abu Dhabi Championship last week, despite a disappointing tournament with the driver.

McIlroy said: "[I'll] work on still the same things that I was working on coming into [last] week, a little bit of posture, trying to get the club in the right position on the way back.

"[In Abu Dhabi] I improved off the tee every day. [On Sunday] I didn't miss a fairway until the 11th I think, and that was a big improvement and something I still have to work on."

In 2009 McIlroy won his first tournament as a professional in Dubai.
