Tournament host Rory McIlroy produced a sensational finish to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat and win the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open for the first time at The K Club.
McIlroy had seen his three-shot lead turned into a one-shot deficit with three holes to play as Scotland's Russell Knox carded four birdies and an eagle in a final round interrupted twice by hailstorms and torrential rain.
But the world No. 3 then birdied the par-five 16th as Knox three-putted and, after lipping out for birdie on the 17th, fired a stunning approach from 252 yards to within three feet of the hole on the 18th for a closing eagle.
