Tee Times Spain Golf: McIlroy returns to winning ways, one and a half year later, in the cathedral of european golf

Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy has returned to winning ways, one and a half year later. And it has done it in the cathedral of European golf in the Wentworth Club in Surrey (England), a stroke over the Irish Shane Lowry, curiously not won the tournament a player of that island since 1958.

The week began with the breakup of the marriage commitment between two former world number one’s, golfer Rory McIlroy and tennis player Caroline Wozniacki just days after the couple sent their wedding invitations.

I just want my head is in the field this week, concentrate on the tournament and try to do well.  I’m not going to lie. It will be very difficult.” declared the Northern Irishman at newsroom one day before beginning to play in the most important circuit event, the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth.

McIlroy was the week between the top places, the first three rounds with cardboards of 68, 71 and 69 strokes kept in the Top 5 of the tournament although the last 18 holes starting to seven strokes Thomas Bjorn after the great Dane gave a whole recital in the day on Saturday.

But this is golf, a sport where anything can happen as happened in the day of Sunday as McIlroy turned the classification until it remained, no more and no less than nine strokes to Bjorn.

Finally there were 66 strokes (-14) played by the champion, the best card of the day together with the Scottish Stephen Gallacher, Lowry (68) was second in solo -13, Bjorn (75) tied for third with Donald (70) with -12. Gallacher (66) and Dyson (67) closed the Top 5 with -9.

Pablo Larrazabal (71) was the best Spanish in seventh place with Stenson, Siem, Aiken and Francesco Molinari with -8 in total. With two more hits Rafa Cabrera-Bello (71) in 16th. The Swede keeps waiting for what happens across the Atlantic with Adam Scott in the Crowne Plaza Invitational, as the world title is at stake.
