Rory McIlroy has made history with his six major wins, and we're revisiting each of his victories, from his record-breaking US Open win to his back-to-back Masters titles. McIlroy's major journey began in 2011 when he dominated the US Open at Congressional Country Club, smashing Tiger Woods' tournament scoring record with a 16-under finish. This eight-shot victory remains the largest winning margin in the tournament's history.
The following year, McIlroy claimed his second major title at the PGA Championship, breaking Jack Nicklaus' record for the largest margin of victory. He continued his winning streak with a wire-to-wire victory at Royal Liverpool in 2014, followed by a win at Valhalla Golf Club.
After an 11-year wait, McIlroy secured his fifth major title at the Masters in 2025, completing the career Grand Slam. He then made history again by becoming the fourth player to win back-to-back Masters titles in 2026, cementing his place among golf's all-time greats.
