Rory McIlroy has targeted a summer of success after producing a stunning finish to win the Irish Open for the first time at The K Club. Boyd Dowler Jersey . McIlroy was in danger of blowing a three-shot lead after 54 holes for the second time this season after Scotlands Russell Knox carded four birdies and an eagle in the first 15 holes of a dramatic final round. Wentworth ways to watch Dont miss a moment of this weeks BMW PGA Championship, with extended coverage from Wentworth live However, the world No 3 then birdied the par-five 16th as Knox three-putted and, after lipping out for a birdie on the 17th, fired a stunning approach from 252 yards to within three feet of the hole on the 18th for a closing eagle. The resulting 69 on a day interrupted twice by hailstorms and torrential rain meant McIlroy finished three shots clear of Knox and Wales Bradley Dredge.He will donate his first prize of £515,000 to his own foundation which hosted the tournament for the second year. It means a lot for my summer, said McIlroy, who failed to convert a similar position in the WGC-Cadillac Championship in March.Its nice to get that first win of the year.I kept telling myself, kept telling anyone that would listen, my game was close. It was just a matter of everything clicking. Maybe those last three holes is the catalyst for another big summer. Rory McIlroy reveals he was holding back the tears on the 18th after winning the Irish Open The 27-year-old, who won four times in 2014 including two majors and a maiden WGC title, added: I really feel like my game is in good enough shape to kick on from here and to challenge in the three final majors, and obviously everything else we have to play for this year, Olympics, Ryder Cup, Race to Dubai, FedEx Cup.The 13th European Tour title of McIlroys career was not enough to improve his position in the world rankings, but it did lift him to second in the Race to Dubai behind Masters champion Danny Willett, who shared the lead at halfway but slumped to a closing 77. McIlroy puts himself in prime position to win the Irish Open after firing this five wood to within two feet of the pin on the 18th That left Knox as McIlroys biggest challenger and the US-based Scot took the lead with birdies on the 14th and 15th, only for McIlroy to produce a stunning approach from 273 yards to set up a two-putt birdie on the 16th, while Knox found sand off the tee and three-putted for a costly bogey.I played brilliant to be honest, Knox said. Obviously 16 is a huge turning point, but the shots that Rory hit in the end, he deserves to win. I shot 75 the first day and finished tied second. Thats pretty good.Englands Matthew Southgate, who regained his European Tour card via the qualifying school after undergoing treatment for testicular cancer last year, carded a closing 68 to finish fourth, the best result of his career.Watch the BMW PGA Championship throughout the week live on Sky Sports 4 - your home of golf Also See: McIlroy claims K Club thriller WATCH: Rorys winning shot Tearful Rory savours home win Free HD Golf Game Don Majkowski Jersey .

Adeiny Hechavarria immediately followed the ruling with a go-ahead sacrifice fly for the Miami Marlins, who held on to beat the Seattle Mariners 3-2 on Sunday completing a three-game sweep. J. K. Scott Jersey . - Washington Redskins tight end Fred Davis said Wednesday hes "nodded off" during meetings, but he said its something every player does. http://www.custompackersjersey.com/custom-willie-davis-jersey-large-1312r.html . LOUIS -- The Atlanta Braves used a two-run rally in the ninth to end their road trip with a win.Charlie Nicholas provides his predictions for the domestic finals around Europe this weekend - including the FA Cup showdown at Wembley. While that encounter between Manchester United and Crystal Palace takes place on Saturday evening, the Scottish Cup, German Cup, Coppa Italia and the Coupe de France competitions also conclude the same day, followed by Sundays Copa del Rey showdown - live on Sky Sports.Heres what Soccer Saturdays Charlie Nicholas is predicting for all six clashes in his Sky Bet tips... FA Cup final: Crystal Palace v Manchester United (Saturday, 5.30pm) Wilfried Zahas Crystal Palace will lock horns with Anthony Martials Manchester United on Saturday Manchester United are obviously heavy favourites but the big question is whether winning it will be enough to ensure Louis van Gaal keeps his job. Im not sure it is.I dont think it will be as one-sided a final as some are expecting. For as much as United might dominate possession, I cant see them having it all their own way and Palace have dangerous players.The fact that United play with such advanced wide men in Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard means that their full-backs wont have much protection, which is dangerous up against Yannick Bolasie and Wilfried Zaha, who will be desperate to prove a point, while Connor Wickham is probably their main goal threat.I do see United getting the job done though and their fans might even be treated to a few goals again! Wayne Rooney is looking fresh now, and Martial has developed into a real match winner.Charlie predicts: Man Utd to win 3-1 and Rooney to score first (40/1 with Sky Bet) Scottish Cup final: Rangers v Hibernian (Saturday, live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 2pm) Rangers celebrate their penalty shoot-out win over Celtic Rangers may have needed penalties to beat Celtic in the semis but they thoroughly deserved the win. They actually out-passed them and played the better football.Hibernian are a good side to watch as well and theres no doubt they have the weapons to hurt Rangers, who are the favourites here. Jason Cummings will come back in, and he showed what a threat he is when they met last month, while Anthony Stokes, on loan from Celtic, will also be a dangerman. However, its been over 100 years since Hibs won this competition and I just think theyll get caught up in the moment.Were going to have a really good final between two good footballing sides. Both teams to score looks an absolute banker and I fancy another youngster, Barrie McKay, to make the difference.Charlie predicts: Rangers to win 3-2 and McKay to score first (130/1 with Sky Bet) Sky Sports pundit Neil McCann is expecting the Scottish Cup final between Rangers and Hibernian to be a tight match DFB-Pokal final: Bayern Munich v Borussia Dortmund (Saturday, 7pm) Pep Guardiola is doused in beer following Bayerns title triumph Theres always great intrigue when these two meet. Kyler Fackrell Jersey. Bayern will pass, pass, pass and dominate the game, whereas Dortmund will look to counter-attack with their pace.Theres a bit of debate about whether Pep Guardiolas tenure has been a success, because he hasnt won the Champions League there, but I think he definitely has been because of the way hes made the stars buy into his way.To apply his philosophy is a real achievement and has added to the club and the Bundesliga in general. I think theyll be superior on Saturday, and give him a fitting send-off in his grand finale. Charlie predicts: Bayern to win 3-1 and Robert Lewandowski to score first (33/1 with Sky Bet)Coppa Italia final: AC Milan v Juventus (Saturday, live on Sky Sports 2 HD from 7.40pm) Paulo Dybala has scored 19 times in Serie A for Juventus this season Every time you watch AC Milan play, it feels like youre searching for the ghost of their past. The present doesnt provide much excitement or adventure but theyre still a big club in Italy, more so than we appreciate, so this will be a really intense affair.Juventus are the kings right now, dominating Italian football and winning Serie A at a canter, despite starting the season really poorly. I see that Alvaro Morata, who has been linked with Arsenal and would be a great signing, is ruled out, but theyve got two other top-class strikers in Mario Mandzukic and Paulo Dybala, who looks a real star for the future.Charlie predicts: Juve to win 3-0 and Dybala to score first (28/1 with Sky Bet)Coupe de France final: Marseille v PSG (Saturday, 8pm) Zlatan Ibrahimovic will play his final game for PSG on Saturday Marseille are the great unpredictables. Id almost compare them to Everton, in that we keep hearing about their talented players, such as Michy Batshuayi, but they rarely deliver, winning just three home games in Ligue 1 this season.PSG should be winning this match very comfortably but I suspect Marseille will look to turn it into a scrap and try to stop them playing football, which might work for a while but wont be enough.You cant look past PSG with the big-time players they have and that man with an ego bigger than the Eiffel Tower, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, producing one big final performance.Charlie predicts: PSG to win 2-0 and Ibrahimovic to score first (11/1 with Sky Bet)Copa del Rey final: Barcelona v Sevilla (Sunday, live on Sky Sports 1 HD from 8pm) Charlie expects Barcelonas three frontmen to flourish We all know that Sevilla are the masters of cup competitions but I think their Europa League final efforts could cost them here. That was the big one for them and it will have taken a lot out of them.Barcelona, meanwhile, have had a nice rest since winning La Liga. That will have done them good and theyll be hungry to finish the season on a high. Kevin Gameiros great pace is something that could hurt them but I suspect the stars will be out on Sunday and theyll produce a stellar performance.Charlie predicts: Barca to win 4-1 and Neymar to score first (35/1 with Sky Bet) Charlies acca Barcelona, Bayern, Juventus and PSG all to win by two or more goals - 16/1 here.
