What is the state of Rory Mcllroy's game? That's sure to be a question asked often next week at the Masters, but an early indication could come at this week's Valero Texas Open. This will mark McIlroy's sixth start of the season and his streak of five starts to start the season without a top-10 is his longest such streak since 2010, his first season as a PGA Tour member.
