BAD GRIESBACH, Germany, Sept 28 (Reuters) - - New European Tour chief executive Keith Pelley has described four-times major winner Rory McIlroy as "a great ambassador for world golf".

The 26-year-old Northern Irishman's season has been marred by an ankle injury sustained during a game of soccer with his friends and he has been overtaken by American Jordan Spieth and Jason Day of Australia at the top of the rankings.
