Rory McIlroy is planning a more assertive approach in the Arnold Palmer Invitational as he looks to bounce back from squandering a four-shot lead in his last event. The 26-year-old took a three-shot lead into the final round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship 10 days ago and moved another stroke clear when nearest challengers Adam Scott and Dustin Johnson both made early mistakes.But the World No 2 then paid the price for adopting a conservative strategy and struggled to a closing 74 as Scott recovered from a six-shot deficit to win his second tournament in succession. It was the first time McIlroy had failed to convert a lead of three shots or more after 54 holes since collapsing to a closing 80 in the 2011 Masters, but he Irishman believes he has learnt from the experience. McIlroy admits he played too conservatively in the final round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship It was a tough one because if I go out there, I shoot 71, I win the golf tournament, McIlroy said. Doral is a tough place with the wind to play with the lead because theres danger lurking around every corner and if youre going to make mistakes, youre conscious of limiting it to a shot.I played the way I thought I needed to play, I just didnt hit close enough. I didnt have a realistic birdie chance inside 25 feet until the 12th hole. I was playing smart and hitting it to 30 feet but youre not going to make birdies, youre not going to gain ground on the field by doing that.Three bogeys on a day like that wasnt too bad but to only make one birdie I felt was my downfall and if I had to take it back, I would have played a little bit more aggressively.Watch the Arnold Palmer Invitational throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf.

Enes Kanter chipped in 16 points, while Rodney Hood, starting for the injured Alec Burks, had 15 points on 4-for-6 shooting, including a perfect 3-for-3 from long range. Despite shooting 45.6 percent from the floor and 50 percent from the 3-point line, the Jazz let the Magic shoot 50 percent from the field. And no matter how decently Utah shot the ball, it was still an eighth consecutive loss. Regardless of our long-term beliefs and commitment, theres an immediacy with losing thats difficult, explained head coach Quin Snyder. We live here in the moment, and in the moment losing is no fun. At the same time, we cant hang our heads or feel sorry for ourselves because were going to be in these situations and weve got to make them work to the best of our ability. The Jazz took two of three from Sacramento last season, but the Kings have won four of six as the host in this series. ' ' '
