\"Rory-McIlroy-WGC-Cadillac\"<\/a><\/p>\n

May 5, 2015 –<\/strong> The world\u2019s number one golfer, Rory McIlroy<\/strong> has delivered a reminder \u2013 he still is ranked as the best in the world. In a grueling week at TPC Harding Park<\/strong> in San Francisco (U.S.), McIlroy won all seven of his matches to claim his first WGC Match Play<\/strong> title.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m really proud of myself with how I showed a lot of character early on with coming back from deficits,” <\/em>Rory McIlroy<\/strong> said. “I played really solid golf. My second WGC and first win in the States this year. I couldn’t be happier.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

McIlroy, who became just the second player in WGC Match Play history to win as the No. 1 seed, relied heavily on his Nike Method 006 putter<\/strong> to help him come out on top. In his semifinal round, McIlroy sank a 44-yard putt for eagle on the 18th hole to advance to the Championship Match for the second time in his career.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis week I felt like I got better each and every day,\u201d <\/em>Rory McIlroy<\/strong> said. \u201cI think that was more to do with more sharpness around the greens and putting and taking advantage of the opportunities I was giving myself.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The Northern Ireland native used his Nike Vapor Pro driver<\/strong> to earn great distance off the tees. The Vapor Pro driver blends three key technologies: Nike\u2019s new FlyBeam reinforced Covert Cavity Back design, a re-engineered Compression Channel and FlexLoft 2. All of these are vital to the golf athlete in achieving the ultimate in hitting their window of distance, speed and launch conditions.<\/p>\n

McIlroy relied on the Nike RZN Black golf ball<\/strong> for control and accuracy. The ball features an innovative Speedlock RZN core which was created with an interlocking core design to help promote better energy transfer between the layers at impact for faster ball speed, longer distance and more stability into the wind.<\/p>\n

On the body, McIlroy sported the Nike Lunar Control 3<\/strong>,\u00a0a shoe he helped inspire, as well as apparel from Nike Golf\u2019s Performance Collection<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
