round that broke the course record by two strokes. He capped the round by going five under par on the last five holes to beat none other than the new Masters champion Phil Mickelson by four strokes, and two-time major championship winner Angel Cabrera by five. And just to put a dramatic capper on the day, he finished by rolling in a 40-footer for birdie on the home hole before a huge gathering of his new, adoring fans. “I suppose I just got into the zone,” said McIlroy. “I hadn’t
realized I was going in 9, 10 under. I just know I got my nose in front and I was just trying to stay there. The last two days, it seemed as if everything had just gone right. You get yourself into sort of a mindset like that, and you just keep going. It’s just been a great day.” McIlroy kicked into high gear on Sunday when, guarding
a one-stroke lead, he hit a 5-iron to three feet and made the eagle putt. He followed that with a birdie on 16 after driving into a fairway bunker and then came close to running in a 55-footer for birdie on the par-3 17th. Naturally, McIlroy’s performance led to speculation that
he might be the next You-Know-Who. Woods, incidentally, missed the cut for only the sixth time as a professional after shooting 153, the highest 36-hole score of his TOUR career. “It’s astonishing for him to have the courage, the guts
to do this,” said CBS Sports golf analyst David Feherty, like McIlroy a native of Northern Ireland. “When I was his age, I would have been thinking about how I was going to manage to lose the tournament. He’s just going further and further and further ahead. And that does remind you of somebody.” Mickelson also came away impressed. “I’ve got to congratulate Rory,” said Mickelson. “He
played some incredible golf. He’s an amazing talent. You knew he was going to come out and win out here. He is some kind of player.” ■

Rory McIlroy’s final-round 62 included six
straight threes on the final six holes.

Like the celebrated “Dubsdread” Course at Cog Hill Golf & Country Club, the site of the BMW Championship, the Quail Hollow Club is one of those TOUR courses which could host any tournament.

The course, designed by George Cobb, hosted the Kemper Open for 10 years, the last time in 1979. Not long afterwards, Tom Fazio was brought in to renovate the course with an eye towards attracting another TOUR event.
Fazio re-did the greens and added some much- needed yardage. One of his most dramatic changes was on the home hole, which he lengthened and brought a creek into play, while creating an amphitheater-like viewing area near the green.
