Rory McIlroy displayed all his battling qualities to win his first Open title at Hoylake on Sunday. Over the first three rounds McIlroy had built up a commanding six stroke lead with some wonderful golf, especially his eagle par eagle finish on Saturday afternoon. McIlroy took a six-shot lead over Rickie Fowler into the last round and was seven clear of Garcia, but saw that advantage cut to just two strokes as Garcia played the first 10 holes in five under par.

However, the 34-year-old Spaniard - fifth here in 2006 and now with 19 top-10s in 64 majors - crucially bogeyed the 15th to release some of the pressure and McIlroy would not be denied becoming the first European player to win three different majors since the Masters was founded in 1934.

McIlroy’s closing 71 gave him a 17-under-par total of 271, two ahead of a gallant Garcia whose closing 66 left him joint second with Rickie Fowler.

Fowler birdied three of the last four holes to card a 67 and has now finished fifth, second and second in the year’s majors. No doubt his time will come soon.

Back up to second in the world rankings, McIlroy has completed three legs of the career Grand Slam and needs to win the Masters to join Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the only men to have won all four majors.

He led by four shots going into the final round at Augusta in 2011 only to collapse to a closing 80.

If he can play with the same swagger as last week he will no doubt be in a strong position to securing his first green jacket come next April at Augusta.

McIlroy is the second wire-to-wire winner of a major in succession after Martin Kaymer won the US Open at Pinehurst last month by eight shots, the same margin by which McIlroy won the 2011 US Open and 2012 US PGA Championship.

Teenager excells on Ladies PGA Tour While Rory McIlroy conquered all at Royal Liverpool an up and coming star on the Ladies PGA Tour was also making history and like McIlroy she too will no doubt be tearing up the record books in the future.

Lydia Ko won the Marathon Classic on Sunday and became the youngest player ever to earn $1 million on the LPGA Tour, aged 17.

The New Zealander birdied the 18th for a one-stroke victory over Ryu So-Yeon, her fourth title on tour. The South Korean-born sensation turned pro in October 2013 and went onto become the youngest ever winner of a professional golf tour event.

She is currently No.2 in the world, behind America’s Stacey Lewis.
