It didn't change much for McIlroy. He elaborated in speaking to the media after his five-under 67: "It was nice to feel my hand shaking a little bit when the tee went into the ground and struggle to put the ball on top of the tee. So I knew I was feeling it. ... Look, we're playing the first major of the year. It's the Masters. If I felt absolutely nothing on that 1st tee, that's not a good sign."
