- Victory at the Tour Championship in Atlanta on Sunday will not completely erase the disappointment of a futile season at the majors for Rory McIlroy, but it may be worth far more than the $15 million he received for winning the FedEx Cup.
The Northern Irishman emphatically outduelled Americans Koepka and Xander Schauffele with a closing four-under 66 at East Lake en route to the biggest prize in the sport. “Going up against the number one player in the world today, he got one over me in Memphis and I wanted to get some revenge,” McIlroy said.Schauffele shot a closing 70, while Koepka was unusually error-prone in a 72 to tie for third with Justin Thomas, five shots behind.McIlroy, who teed off one stroke behind Koepka, hit the ball long and straight as he split fairway after fairway.
The Northern Irishman opened the door slightly with bogeys at the 14th and 15th holes, but slammed it shut again with a clutch eight-foot par putt at the 16th.McIlroy’s third win of the year followed triumphs at the Players Championship and Canadian Open.
