Rory McIlroy produced an imperious performance from tee to green to win the Genesis Scottish Open.
The four-time major champion battled challenging conditions and a stacked leaderboard to win for the 24th time on the PGA Tour – and he did so using a full complement of TaylorMade clubs.
A quick glance at McIlroy’s final rounds stats demonstrate just how worthy a winner he was at The Renaissance Club on East Lothian.

Across the four rounds, he was first in SG: Off the Tee (5.927), first in SG: Tee to Green (11.640), first in Average Driving Distance (331.9-yards), and second in Putts per GIR (1.64).
It all added up to a 15-under-par total and a one-shot victory over home hopeful Robert MacIntyre.
McIlroy’s TaylorMade Stealth 2 Plus served him particularly well during Sunday’s blustery final round, helping him to launch six drives of more than 350 yards.

He maxed out with a whopping 428-yard blast on the seventh hole.
On the greens, the Irishman wielded his Spider X Hydro Blast putter and TP5x golf ball to devastating effect, making all four of his putts from ten to 15 feet in the final round, including his decisive birdie at the last.
He set up that opportunity with a P•760 2-iron that he put in the bag earlier this week.
Here’s a full look at the clubs used by McIlroy for his first professional victory in Scotland…
