Rory McIlroy will not be returning to the PGA Tour policy board any time soon after some “pretty complicated and pretty messy” conversations, the Northern Irishman said Wednesday. The world No. 2 resigned from his position as a player director after two years in November citing “personal and professional commitments,” but admitted last month that he would be willing to return to the board if he was wanted. Yet following talks about replacing Webb Simpson, the American will now see out the rest of his term – which runs into 2025 – after McIlroy ruled out a return, citing that some on the board were “uncomfortable” with him coming back. “There’s been a lot of conversations,” McIlroy, speaking ahead of the Wells Fargo Championship in North Carolina, told reporters. “It got pretty complicated and pretty messy, and I think with the way it happened, it opened up some old wounds and scar tissue from things that have happened before. “There was a subset of people on the board that were maybe uncomfortable with me coming back on for some reason. I think the best course of action is, if there [are] some people on there who aren’t comfortable with coming back on, then I think Webb stays on and sees out his term.
