McIlroy, who won the title in 2019 and 2022, has w♛on twice on the PGA Tour this season, adding to his🐼 victory on the DP World Tour at the Hero Dubai Desert Classic.
The 35-year-old is still without a major success, falling just short in June's U.S. Open to Bryson DeChambeau following a late collapse at Pinehurst.&൩nbsp;
McIlroy arrives at the FedEx Cup Playoffs third in the rankings﷽ behind two-time major winner this year Xander Schauffele and recent Olympic champion Scotti𒈔e Scheffler.
But the Northern Irishman is conf𝓰ident he can end the season on a high ahead of an intense three-week stretch.
"I certainly don't want to sit up here and belittle my ꦑachievements this year and what I've done, but at the same time, I expect a certain standard from myself," McIlr꧒oy said.
"I've won a couple of times, but I've had an opportunity to win a few more times than that an✨d haven't been able to get over the line.
"I would have liked to have added a couple more to that win column. But there's still three tournaments left in𝔉 this PGA Tour season.
"Even the three years th💧at I've won the FedExCup, I came into the Playoffs, I think in 36th and was able to win, but then '19 and '22 I was a further up and closer to the lead."
"I think when the bulk ꦑof the season has come and gone, and you've got this opportu🐎nity of three weeks to really flip the script a little bit or change the narrative and what that season means.
"I think 🎀that's a motivating factor, and part of the reason that I've probably played well in the Playoffs for the last three years."
