Rory McIlroy wins another European Tour Golfer of the Year Award

World number three Rory McIlroy’s domination of the European Tour Golfer of the Year Award has continued with a third triumph in four seasons.

The Irishman won three times this year, including the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai last month to successfully defend his Race to Dubai crown — an honour he also claimed for a third time since 2012.

McIlroy became only the seventh player in European Tour history to be crowned European number one in consecutive campaigns.
