Rory McIlroy won the CJ Cup last night, beating the last winner of the famous Augusta Masters Colin Morikawa.
The North Irishman did not shake in the face of his opponents this Sunday near Las Vegas. On the fourth and final day of the match, McIlroy returned a fine card of 66, or 6 strokes. Overall, he finished with a -25 score, his runner-up Morikawa-24 and two other Americans Keith Mitchell and Ricky Fowler-22.
