Rory McIlroy: What’s In The Bag

What is in Rory McIlroy’s bag?

Rory McIlroy returned to the world number one spot after successfully defending his CJ Cup title in October 2022. A look at Rory McIlroy: What’s In The Bag.

McIlroy held off Kurt Kitayama by a shot at Conagree Golf Club to claim the CJ Cup title for the second year in a row.

The Northern Irishman’s four-under par final round saw him finish on 17-under par and a shot clear of the field. It was a win that moved him above Scottie Scheffler at the top of the OWGR rankings.

Can’t ask for a better start to the season than this. Extremely proud of the work that I have put in to get back to World No. 1. So grateful for the support of my team and fans all over the world. @congareegolf is an incredible place and the fans this week were amazing. pic.twitter.com/LHK9PfQdSa

It was McIlroy’s 23rd PGA Tour victory and the 35th of his career, as well as being his third title of 2022 following victories in the Canadian Open and Tour Championship.

The PGA Tour victories have come in the 2010 Quail Hollow Championship, 2012 The Honda Classic, 2012 and 2016 Deutsche Bank Championship, 2012 BMW Championship, 2014 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, 2015 WGC-Cadillac Match Play, 2015 and 2021 Wells Fargo Championship, 2016, 2019 and 2022 Tour Championship, 2018 Arnold Palmer Invitational, 2019 The Players Championship, 2019 and 2022 RBC Canadian Open, 2019 WGC-HSBC Champions and 2021 CJ Cup.
