Rory McIlroy completes double of Tour titles as Séamus Power’s challenge fades in Georgia

“This year has been an incredible year. I really could never ask for more, to win so early in the season and then to win in Korea and then win the last event of the year. I couldn’t have drawn it up any better,” said Ko of her year to remember.

For a time on Sunday, Power – winner of the Bermuda Championship last month – looked set to claim another success as he moved into a share of the lead but ultimately he had to settle for tied-fifth in the RSM Classic at Sea Island in Georgia where Canadian Adam Svensson finished with a 64 for 19-under-par 263 to lift his first PGA Tour win.

“I’m looking forward to a break,” confessed Power, “to some time off and just getting away from it. I did that after the [FedEx Cup] playoffs this year and I really felt rejuvenated and you just find that energy and spring in your step again. I’m looking forward to that again and getting started in early January,” said Power.
