Wins Irish Open Hojgaard fired a six-under 65 in the final round to win the Amgen Irish Open by one stroke over Rory McIlroy. Impact Hojgaard picked up the biggest win of his career to this point with a sensational final round that included birdies on four of the last five holes to edge out McIlroy, who barely missed an eagle putt to force a playoff. Hojgaard now has five DP World Tour wins to his credit at age 23 and is up to second in the Race to Dubai standings. He is also in great position to earn a PGA Tour card next season, after barely missing out on the DP World Tour Top 10 Eligibility Rankings last year. Hojgaard will look to stay hot at the BMW PGA Championship.
