The Down native beat Justin Rose in a playoff

Both McIlroy and Justin Rose finished on 11 under par and so, a playoff ensued.

McIlroy came out on top to become only the 6th ever golfer to win the 4 golfing majors, following in the footsteps of Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Ben Hogan, Gene Sarazen and Gary Player. 

Rose finished second and Patrick Reed in third on nine under.

Shane Lowry had a 9 over par final round and finished in a tie for 42nd on 4 over par altogether.
