The Wells Fargo Championship is one of the most prestigious events on the PGA Tour, and at the Quail Hollow Club, Rory McIlroy has established himself as the king of the course. With his impressive skills and unwavering determination, McIlroy has dominated the competition and solidified his place as a force to be reckoned with in the world of golf.
McIlroy's success at Quail Hollow is no fluke; he consistently delivers outstanding performances that leave fans in awe. His ability to navigate the challenging course with precision and finesse sets him apart from his competitors. Whether it's his powerful drives or precise putting, McIlroy always finds a way to come out on top.
Two eagles and two birdies saw McIlroy take control in some fashion as both he and Schauffele started the back nine on 13-under, Schauffele's putting letting him down at key moments as McIlroy motored on.
The presentation also included a moment of silence in memory of the officers who were shot. Four area officers – Sam Poloche, Joshua Eyer, William “Alden” Elliot and Thomas M. Weeks Jr. – were shot and killed April 29 while attempting to serve a warrant at a Charlotte-area home. Four additional officers were also shot in the incident.
McIlroy birdied the first hole Sunday to quickly pull even with Schauffele, who had led alone for most of the tournament after opening with 64. But after Schuaffele converted a mid-length eagle putt on the 7th and McIlroy three-putted for par, the 34-year-old Northern Irishman found himself two back.
That’s when he turned on the jets, birdieing the 8th and 9th to pull even at the turn. When he drilled a 34-putt for eagle on the 10th, McIlroy had the lead to himself.
“That was a big moment on 7,” McIlroy said. “I three-putted, Xander made an eagle. Then Xander was inside me on 8, I knew I really needed to hole that putt just to try to stay or keep up with him. Then he missed his, I birdied mine and then I just went on a run that for whatever reason I’m able to go on at this golf course.”
McIlroy began the day with a birdie on the first hole to briefly tie Schauffele but fell back with a bad bogey on the par-3 4th hole after his tee shot was a club short and found the bunker.
The win marked McIlroy’s second in a row after his victory at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans alongside Shane Lowry and McIlroy’s 26th on the PGA TOUR.
