Sizzling McIlroy captures PGA Pebble Beach title

Rory McIlroy put on a dominant back-nine performance to win the Pebble Beach Pro-Am by two strokes, securing his 27th career PGA Tour title.

The 35-year-old, a four-time major champion from Northern Ireland, made three birdies and an eagle after the turn, shooting a six-under-par 66 to finish at 21-under 267 on the famous oceanside course.

Ireland’s Shane Lowry, the 2019 British Open winner, birdied the 18th hole to card a 68 and finish second at 269, just missing out on his fourth PGA title.

Tied for third place were former US Open champions Lucas Glover and England’s Justin Rose, who made a spectacular 61-foot eagle putt from off the green at the par-5 18th to also shoot 68.
