Rory Mcllroy won the Wells Fargo Championship, setting a record four round score of 267, finishing the tournament seven shots clear of his nearest challengers Patrick Rodgers and Webb Simpson.

The Northern Irishman was victorious for the second time in two weeks after wining the WGC World Matchplay at the beginning of the month and with the preparation to the run up to the US Open in June  well under way,  he will be looking to add a fifth major to his trophy cabinet.

A final round of 69 was enough for the world number one to take victory after shooting a third round 61. Steady golf across the final day was all that was needed to take home the cheque for over $1.2 million and he goes into the next month full of confidence and looking to add a second US Open crown, the tournament that saw him claim his first major.
