Rory McIlroy makes history as the first man to win the PGA Tour playoff title three times, producing an epic final-round comeback to beat world number one Scottie Scheffler at the decisive Tour Championship.
McIlroy overcame a six-stroke deficit to slip past number one seed Scottie Scheffler and claim the $US18 million first prize.
On the next hole, he appeared in trouble but a pitch shot hit the pin and he was able to sink a par putt from outside 2 metres. Scheffler took a bogey on the hole after hitting out of a greenside bunker. Im was bidding to become the first golfer from Asia to capture the PGA Tour playoff title. Even a double bogey on the 14th hole did not derail his chances, though settling for par on the par-5 18th turned out costly.
