WITB Time Machine: Rory McIlroy’s winning WITB, 2014 Open Championship
In July 2014, at Royal Liverpool Golf Club in Hoylake, Rory McIlroy captured his first Open title in wire-to-wire fashion. He opened strongly with rounds of 66-66-68-71 and finished at 17 under par, topping Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler by two strokes. The victory was McIlroy’s third major title, and he became, along with Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus, the only player to win three majors by the age of 25.
