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

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.
