PGA Tour: Rory McIlroy beat teammates Ryder Cup Shane Lowry, Justin climbed to win at AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-AM | Golf news
Rory McIlroy produced an amazing empty back to achieve the winning start of his PGA Tour season with an impressive two hits at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-AM.
McIlroy entered the last round of shooting behind the teammate Ryder Cup Sepp Strak and was tied to the lead on the road, only to get a congested water plate with a stunning starting in the last nine.
Northern Irishman played a six-hole stretch in the five below, pointing out the glossy eagle on the par-pound 14.-to-open an advantage of four stroke practices and then closed six-point 66 to end up 21 below and ask for the 27th.
The winning margin of McIlroy was reduced by the rapid end of Shane Lowry, and five birds in the last eight holes helped him to solo seconds, while Justin Rose raised the hectic plowing finale to a third with Lucas Glover.
Tom Kim – who had part of the lead for a big piece of last day – descended into a tied seventh with Strak, and Scottie Scheffler in the world no. 1 Scottie Scheffler marked a return from an injury looking for a stake in ninth place.
