McIlroy won the points-based player of the year award on the strength of his two majors at the British Open and PGA Championship. Winning two majors comes with a 50-point bonus. McIlroy also won the Bridgestone Invitational. McIlroy had an adjusted scoring average of 68.62 to win the Vardon Trophy over Sergio Garcia (68.95).
The 25-year-old from Northern Ireland also won the PGA’s player of the year and the Vardon Trophy in 2012.
The PGA Tour awards a separate award for player of the year based on a vote of the players. Voting for that ends Sept. 25.
