Rory McIlroy will once again tee it up at the BMW PGA Championship from September 12-17.
After opening 2023 with his first Rolex Series win in Dubai, the Northern Irish star is aiming to further enhance his impressive BMW PGA Championship record, with a victory in 2014 and four further top tens – including two runner-up finishes – to his name.
McIlroy was in scintillating form when he made his last appearance at Wentworth in September, having sealed his third FedExCup title after a 2021/22 PGA TOUR season which included three victories and seven further top tens.
And following a thrilling final day duel with Ryder Cup teammate and eventual champion Shane Lowry around the famous Surrey venue, he went on to top the Race to Dubai Rankings in Partnership with Rolex for the fourth time, becoming European Number One, World Number One and FedExCup Champion at the same point for the first time in his career.
McIlroy started the new campaign in the same vein, winning his first events of the 2023 season on both sides of the Atlantic, with the prospect of a seventh Ryder Cup appearance approaching in September.
“I always love playing at the BMW PGA Championship, and I’ve had some great results and performances round the West Course in the past,” said the 15-time DP World Tour winner.
“I started 2023 with a win in Dubai, and Wentworth is a place where I would like to add another title.”
McIlroy will join defending champion and fellow Major winner Lowry in the field at the fourth Rolex Series event of the 2023 season, where the world class action inside the ropes will be complemented by live entertainment on the Showstage and an unrivalled atmosphere in the vibrant Spectator Village.
