I didn't feel like I chipped the ball particularly well this week, said McIlroy, who finished tied for eighth. I was sort of messing around with a 64 [degree wedge] going into Augusta and so I was practicing with that a good bit and then just went back to the 60 [degree wedge] last week. I was sort of in between two wedges a little bit.McIlroy said he doesnt plan to make a scouting trip to Bethpage before the PGA Championship and suggested the setup will be more forgiving than it is when the layout hosts the U.S. Open.I think it will be set up very similarly to the way the PGA Tour events were set up, he said. It's sort of fair, it's right in front of you. I think [PGA of America chief championships officer] Kerry Haigh does a really good job, so somewhere in the region of 8 to 12 under par will probably win.
