The Golf Blog says: 23 year old Rory McIlroy had the impressive Sunday leaderboard (Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh, Lee Westwood, and Tiger Woods) that made his back-to-back win (and 3 in his last 4 starts) even more impressive. Rory shot an impressive final round 67 to best the rest of the field at Crooked Stick in Indiana. Rory ties Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the only players to win 6 PGA Tour events by age 23 years old. And he has another tournament next week!

This year’s PGA Championship (which Rory won) may prove to be the turning point in Rory’s ascendancy and, maybe, just maybe, the end of the Tiger era.
