Rory McIlory won after 1 year and 6 months

After the feats of 2010 and 2015, Rory McIlroy wins the Wells Fargo Championship for the third time in his career. In Charlotte (USA) the Northern Irishman with a total of 274 (72 66 68 68, -10) strokes overtook the Mexican Abraham Ancer, second with 275 (-9), and returned to success 1 year, 6 months and 6 days after the last time (WGC-HSBC Champions in November 2019). After having dropped to 15th place in the world ranking (never so badly since 2009) the Northern Irishman is back in the Top 10 and flies to 7th place.

Rory McIlroy, Wells Fargo Championship

"It has been a while since the last time. To be successful is never easy and this is a special joy." This is the satisfaction of McIlroy, who dedicated the exploit in North Carolina to his mother Rosie and his wife Erica, but also to his daughter Poppy. For the 32-year-old from Holywood it is the 19th title (figure including 4 Majors and 3 WGCs) in his career on the PGA Tour, which arrives at the 196th start. A loot that allows him to further enter the list of the best ever and emulate Ben Crenshaw, Ernie Els, Doug Ford, Hubert Green, Tom Kite and Bill Mehlhorn.

McIlroy also received a check for $ 1,458,000 for a total prize pool of 8,100,000 and 17th place (he was 51 / o on the eve of the tournament) in the FedEx Cup. On the Quail Hollow Club course (par 71) another good result for the Norwegian Viktor Hovland, 3 / o (276, -8) alongside the American Keith Mitchell (alone in the lead at the end of the third round). Fifth place (277, -7) for Gary Woodland, sixth (279, -5) for Patrick Reed, Matt Wallace and Luke List. Top 10 for Bryson DeChambeau, 9 / o (280, -4) like Aaron Wise. While he did not go beyond 26 / o place (284, par), Justin Thomas, world number 2. In 2010 McIlroy celebrated his first title on the top American circuit. And now, again at Wells Fargo, he has made the treble in the competition, putting behind him a period characterized by difficult results. In Charlotte, at the most complicated moment, McIlroy's ransom arrived.

In Italy it is possible again to organize and play golf competitions in the yellow zone. The good news was communicated in time by the Federgolf.

After the one relating to the abolition of the examination of the rules, the Federation issues another circular (number 16), less surprising than the previous one but very much awaited.

Starting from April 26, 2021 it is allowed, exclusively for the territories located in the yellow zone, to carry out any sporting golf activity outdoors, in compliance with the guidelines adopted by the Presidency of the Council of Ministers - Department for Sport.

After careful analysis of the current legislation and unless otherwise and any guidance should be provided by the Department of Sport of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, any golf sporting activity, events, demonstrations and competitions (including social and pro -am) if carried out outdoors and in compliance with the Federal Protocol.

With reference to the performance of the amateur sports activity referred to there, the use of changing rooms is prohibited unless otherwise established by the guidelines referred to in the first sentence.

For the territories located in the orange and red areas, the prescriptions made with previous legislative measures remain valid and effective.

A great step forward after months of lockouts or general play. Once again it's up to us now to respect the rules (not just those of golf) so that golf never stops.
