Rory McIlroy was Tuesday named as the European Tour Golfer of the Year for the second time in three seasons capping an outstanding 2014 for the World No.1.

The Northern Ireland star won the BMW PGA Championship before back-to-back majors success at the Open and US Professional Golfers Association (PGA).

McIlroy also won the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational as he topped the Race to Dubai standings and helped Europe to a Ryder Cup victory.

"Winning it for the first time two years ago was a fantastic feeling, but I feel like I'm now a more complete player and my all-round game has moved to another level," the 25-year-old said in a statement released by the European Tour.

 

"This has obviously been the best season of my career by a long way, and to win The Race to Dubai for the second time really is something truly special.

"That four-week spell over the summer, from the Open to the US PGA Championship, would have to be the best golf of my life."
