Rory McIroy wins The Open Championship & Dad bags $400,000 dollars ..........

Picture
Rory McIlroy wrote his name into the record books when he carded a closing one under par 71 to claim a two shot victory over Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler at the 143rd Open Championship at Royal Liverpool.
At 25 years and 77 days McIlroy became the third youngest golfer to achieve the third leg of the modern Grand Slam after Jack Nicklaus (23 years and 181 days) and Tiger Woods (24 years and 171 days).

Picture
It was a bumper day for the McIlroy family as Rory wins golf's oldest major at Royal Liverpool.
Not only did Rory win almost £1 million in prize money, but dad Gerry and three friends will be receiving a £200,000 payout after making a cunning bet some ten years ago.

The quartet put £100 each at odds of 500/1 on Rory to win the Open before his 26th birthday.

Our Sweepstake leader Dragon from Day Three has carried the day with an impressive 219 points total followed by CageSyndicate on 249 and a very close call for third Brazilla on 256.
Painter takes out our final prize on 306.
Many thanks to all those whom participated, we look forward to seeing you all at our next Major "The PGA Championship" at the Valhalla Golf Club in just over three weeks.

Payouts as follows:
Dragon:              $252.00
CageSyndicate: $189.00
Brazilla:              $126.00
Painter:               $63.00
