Rory McIlroy – Final Round in full | The Open at Royal Liverpool 2014

Rory McIlroy dominated the 2014 Open at Royal Liverpool and deservedly became Champion Golfer of the Year for the first time.

Only an exciting final-day charge from Sergio Garcia (66), with an eagle at the 10th before leaving his ball in a bunker at the 15th, and Rickie Fowler finishing fast for a 67 cut McIlroy’s winning margin to two strokes.

Though his overnight six-stroke lead dwindled alarmingly early in the round, he held firm with a steady 71 good enough for a 17-under-par total of 271.

McIlroy became the third Northern Irish winner after Fred Daly, also at Hoylake in 1947, and Darren Clarke (2011).

  1. That phone that went off at Sergio at 2 hrs??? only one person I know ever has that back to the future ting …and yes he was there the Scouse numpty ??

  2. Really, a leaderboard now and again would help, isn't the score the whole point? Jeez ..And Scott should be ashamed of himself for using that "putter", can never be considered a genuine major winner/number 1 ranked golfer with that – now banned, which validates the point – abhorrent implement.

  3. I realize Peter Aliss is revered by golf fans, particularly for his commentary at The Open Championships over the years, but he became a crotchety, rambling old fart in his last few years on the mike. He got into hot water for making sexist remarks at The Masters, and I found him to be a bit of relic at the end. Telling Frank Nobilo to Shut up just 25 minutes into the broadcast is typical of his boorish ways. They should have retired him 10 years before this and he wouldn't have tainted his legacy.

  4. Announcer talks about looking at the leader board at the end, but the stuffy R&A and Open organization think it’s a sin to show it on close up on camera, especially after the announcer refers to it. Idiots!
