Collin Morikawa created history today at the DP World Tour Championship as he emerged on top of the leaderboard to snag the climax of the European Tour. With his stellar performance, he not only won our hearts but also become the first American to lift this trophy.

The 24-year-old spent the first three rounds lurking under the top performers, not quite finding his rhythm. However, it all worked out in the end. His outstanding form shone through as he played a ruthless back-nine with five birdies to claim the top spot. Moreover, as the pressure snuck up on the rest, Morikawa’s mental strength brought out the best in him and led him to victory.

Meanwhile, Rory’s McIlroy’s form went totally haywire as the overnight leader witnessed three bogeys in the last four holes to finish a disappointing T-6. Amazing performances led Matt Fitzpatrick and Alexander Bjork to finish three strokes behind Morikawa, T-2.
