Rory McKenzie, a native Scot born on 7th October 1993, stands 5 feet 8 inches tall and tips the scales at 11st 11lb. This central midfielder boasts the honour of donning the number 7 shirt for Kilmarnock. His career kicked off in the 2010-2011 season with one appearance for the first team.
The following season saw McKenzie proving his worth with 17 appearances and 7 goals at Brechin City. His return to Kilmarnock in the 2012-2013 season brought 22 appearances and a couple of goals.
McKenzie's role at Kilmarnock became more central with the passing years. He made 33 appearances in 2013-2014, knocking in four goals. In the subsequent 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 seasons, he made 56 appearances in total, netting one solitary goal.
Despite the dipping goal return, McKenzie's importance to Kilmarnock was clear as he maintained a consistent presence on the pitch. With 56 appearances and four goals in the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 seasons, he demonstrated his staying power.
For the following two seasons, McKenzie's performance kept steady. With 51 appearances and a pair of goals, he remained a pillar of the midfield. He carved his name further into Kilmarnock's history with 57 appearances and three goals in the 2020-2021 and 2021-2022 seasons.
The 2022-2023 season saw McKenzie clocking up 36 appearances, though without troubling the scorers. In 2023-2024, the committed midfielder notched up 28 appearances with one goal to his name. The current 2024-2025 season has yet to see McKenzie make his mark on the pitch.
In addition to his Scottish Premier League exploits, McKenzie hard-earned two starts in the Scottish Cup and made one start in the qualifiers for the Europa League, bolstering his reputation as a steady, reliable presence at the heart of the Kilmarnock midfield.
