Shanghai Masters Lake Malaren
Rory McIlroy has won the Shanghai Masters after a play-off against runner up Anthony Kim at The Masters GC, Lake Malaren. Despite starting the fourth round with a 3 shot advantage the 22 year-old Northern Irish player lost ground to Kim, who eventually forced the play-off.
McIlroy and Kim began a nervous sudden death for the biggest prize in golf of $2,000,000 on the 18th hole. It looked like the playoff would continue as both players matched each other on the approach to the green but Kim missed a 3 foot putt to hand the victory to Rory McIlory.

I love golf but don’t play nearly enough. My favorite club is my trusty Taylor Made Supersteel 5 wood, I use it off the tee, on the fairway and in the rough. I’ve been writing for Golf & Course for nearly a year.
