The Rory runaway at Congressional was in evidence at the halfway mark, when McIlroy shot 65-66 to take a 6-stroke lead at the halfway point. The Northern Irishman followed that up with two more rounds in the 60s to post a 72-hole total of 268, breaking the previous record by four strokes. At 22 years/1 month/15 days, McIlroy also became the youngest U.S. Open champion since Bob Jones in 1923.
