And he did it the hard way.
McIlroy was 10-shots behind the leaders coming into the weekend but produced two impressive rounds to lift the trophy.
Speaking to Sky Sports news afterwards news, he said "It is really cool - there wasn't a ton of fireworks just because the course was so difficult but I held on as best as I could and thankfully no-one around the top of the leaderboard made much of a run,"
Elsewhere, Tom McKibbin finished the tournament in 14th place - eight shots behind McIlroy.
