On a day when his rivals faltered, McIlroy stood firm to become the fifth youngest player to win two major titles. The Northern Irishman held a three-shot lead after the third round – which was postponed due to rain and completed on Sunday morning – and never looked back, finishing on thirteen-under-par. Only Ian Poulter looked like he may threaten McIlory as he opened with six rbz driver in the first seven holes. However, the Englishman endured a run of a different nature on the back nine, bogeying four of the last six holes, to end on just four-under-par. Carl Pettersson had begun the day as McIlroy’s closest challenger but the Swede was dealt a killer blow when he incurred a two-shot penalty on the first hole for grounding his taylormade rocketballz driver in a hazard. Four birdies on the remaining eight holes on the front nine suggested he may still be able to muster a charge but he faded to four-under and a tie of third. The likes of Tiger Woods and Adam Scott were unable to produce the goods when it mattered, with Woods struggling to a 72 and a final score of two-under where he was joined by Scott who carded a closing 73. There where low rounds on the day though, with David Lynnpropelled into second place thanks to a 68. Justin Rose notched up eight rbz driver for sale on his way to a 66 and a score of four-under where he was joined by among others 2011 champion Keegan Bradley who closed with a 68. However, none of Sunday’s strong finishers had begun the day in a position to challenge McIlroy who certainly didn’t cave under the pressure of the occasion. The 23-year-old, who moves back to world number one thanks to his victory, didn’t blot his copy book once as he produced six birdies to shoot a 66. Such was McIlroy’s dominance that his eight-shot margin of victory eclipsed the previous record winning taylormade rbz driver set by Jack Nicklaus in 1980. |
