McIlroy claims maiden Pebble Beach Pro-Am title with commanding performance, finishing at -21 to secure his 27th PGA Tour victory. The four-time major winner started the day one shot behind leader Sepp Straka but quickly moved into contention with early birdies.

The key turning point came at the par-5 14th hole, where McIlroy made a brilliant 26-foot eagle putt to establish a commanding four-shot lead. Though Shane Lowry mounted a late challenge with birdies on 16th and 18th, McIlroy maintained his composure to secure a two-shot victory.

Final Leaderboard:

  • Rory McIlroy (-21)
  • Shane Lowry (-19)
  • Justin Rose (-18)
  • Lucas Glover (-18)
  • Cam Davis (-17)
  • Russell Henley (-17)
  • Tom Kim (-16)
  • Sepp Straka (-16)

The win earned McIlroy $3.6 million from the $20 million purse at this Signature Event. After the victory, McIlroy expressed his goal of reaching 30 PGA Tour wins this season, building on his impressive tally of over 40 worldwide victories.

This marks McIlroy's first PGA Tour win since the 2023 Wells Fargo Championship in May, demonstrating his continued excellence at one of golf's most iconic venues.
