Rory’s wins in 2022 which led to his earnings

Unquestionably, Rory had an incredible season in 2022. The world number one won three events. He went head-to-head with Scottie Scheffler for the FedEx Cup and came out on top. McIlroy said in his post-win interview, “I feel like Scottie deserves at least half of this today. He has had an unbelievable season.”

Scottie and McIlroy battled the entire season for the number-one spot and multiple wins across the tour. While Scottie took the Major win at the Masters in Augusta, Rory won the FedEx Cup, and they hilariously joked about being even. He said, “We’re one all in Georgia this year. He got the Masters I got this.”

McIlroy also won the RBC Canadian Open this year, making it back-to-back wins for him. He also got his first win of the 2022–2023 season while defending the CJ CUP. Rory now has two chances in 2023 to make a three-peat. Will he be able to?
