World number one Rory McIlroy has said that he doesn't want to play professional golf past the age of 40.
The four-time Major winner has won both the WGC-Cadillac Match Play and Wells Fargo Championship this month to extend his lead at the top of the world rankings.
At 26 years old, McIlroy believes that he has 14 more years left in him.
"I don't anticipate playing senior golf or championship golf," he told BBC Sport. "I used to think [I would want to retire at] 40.
"That's 14 years away, that's longer than most sports people have, and I've already had an eight-year career in golf. Twenty-five years at this game should be enough to help me achieve what I want to.
"If there comes a time when I feel I can't win or give it my best I'd very happily hang up the sticks and do something else."
McIlroy is back in the UK after his victories in America and will be competing at both the BMW PGA Championship and the Irish Open.
He has only finished outside the top two in two of his last 10 European Tour events, winning five of those tournaments.
