McIlroy rallies to win record fourth Wells Fargo Championship
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Rory McIlroy has a full head of steam heading into the PGA Championship.
McIlroy won the Wells Fargo Championship for a record fourth time Sunday with another dominating performance at Quail Hollow, easily overcoming a two-stroke deficit to beat Xander Schauffele by five shots.
No other player has won the event more than twice.
McIlroy closed with a 6-under 65, playing the final 11 holes in 6 under even with a double bogey on the 18th hole. He finished at 17-under 267 after four straight rounds in the 60s and won his second straight PGA Tour event after teaming with Shane Lowry to take the Zurich Classic two weeks ago in New Orleans.
