Golf roundup: Rory McIlroy impresses in Pebble Beach victory
McIlroy had looked as though he was the player to beat from the second hole, when he hit a tough pitch from 50 yards away over a bunker to a back pin with enough height and spin to set up a two-foot birdie putt. It was after his lone bogey on the tough eighth hole where he pulled away, though, leaving everyone else in a hopeless chase.
