Take that. What a turnaround. A winless 2017, a nagging rib injury and then 2 missed cuts in 4 starts, over par rounds were all left behind when Rory McIlroy dominated the Arnold Palmer Invitational birdieing five of the last six holes and eight of the last thirteen to shoot 64 in the final round. He saw off fighting performances from Henrik Stenson and Justin Rose.

Once again Tiger Woods was in contention, five under on the final day he got within one shot of the leader until he hit his tee shot out of bounds on the 16th and had a bogey, bogey finish.

Welcome back Rory.
