TONY STARKS NOVEMBER 20, 2022
Rory McIlroy has been on a tear. He put the proverbial cherry on top of a stellar year by winning the DP World Tour’s Race to Dubai – Europe’s season-long competition. Just a few months early, McIlroy claimed the FedEx Cup and won the PGA TOUR’s yearlong points race. He’s just the second golfer in history to win both in the same season.
This is the fourth time McIlroy has won the Race to Dubai and first since 2015.
“It means a lot. It’s been seven years since I’ve last done it. I’ve won three FedEx Cups since I last won… I’ve been able to win this tour’s rankings and finish the year as world No. 1, but to do it in America as well, yeah, it’s very cool. I keep saying that I’ve been a pro now for over 15 years, and to still try to figure out ways to try to accomplish new things, that’s what keeps me coming back.”
RORY MCILROY
Equipped with Stealth Plus driver, TP5x golf ball and Spider X putter, McIlroy has put on a masterful display of golf from tee to green. His DP World Tour scoring average of 68.7 was the lowest in European golf history, and his 68.67 on the PGA TOUR was the best since Tiger in ’09.
