Rory McIlory won the 2011 U.S. Open Championship at Congressional yesterday. It was his first major win and by the experts will not be his last. After four months ago at the Masters McIlory, whom had a huge lead in that event choked when the spotlight was on him in that moment. But this time he relished the spotlight and soared to a convincing win where he won by 8 shots. It is been back to back wins for players from Northern Ireland with Graeme McDowell winning in 2010. At 22, he is the second youngest behind of course Tiger Woods to win a Major. Now that he has won a major that debate goes on if he will be next great to win multiple majors and vast in the glory? Only time will tell if Rory will be the next great but at 22 he has time to cement his legacy in golf. But with that unmemorable loss at the Master’s behind him now he can focus on winning more.
