Rory McIlroy won the 2014 British Open at Royal Liverpool.Ā  He built a big lead over the first three days, and then held off final-round charges by Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler to win by a couple of shots.

Here is a boring video montage put out by “The Open Championship”.

And here is actually something that might be interesting. ESPN’s Sport Science takes a look at how Rory can hit his driver so far despite being a little lacking in, ummm…stature.

Rory’s swing is pretty much exactly as Ben Hogan described the golf swing in his famous book “Five Lessons: the Modern Fundamentals of Golf“.
