Double major winner Rory McIlroy overcame his separation from to be wife Caroline Wozniacki by winning the PGA Championship at Wentworth on Sunday.
The 25-year-old came from seven shots behind 54-hole Wentworth leader Thomas Bjorn to card a six-under-par 66 and win by one.
Bjorn blew a six-stroke lead early on to finish two back with Luke Donald.
Shane Lowry finished second in the event, reports the BBC.
McIlroy and former world number one tennis player Wozniacki, 23, had been in a relationship since 2011 and the golfer proposed to the Dane on New Year's Eve.
He experienced a form slump in 2013 and last tasted success at the Australian Open last year.
McIlroy said that felt happy about his win, but added that personally, it had been a weird week for him.
