McIlroy continues Irish success in majors

Just over five years ago, no Irish golfer had won a major since Fred Daly in the 1947 Open, but how times have changed.

Starting at the 2007 Open, Padraig Harrington won three out of six, and then Graeme McDowell and Rory McIlroy - both from north of the border, like Daly – won back-to-back US Opens.
