Rory McIlroy will be eyeing glory at his favourite event again next week as the Wells Fargo Championship takes centre-stage.
McIlroy, who won the Zurich Classic alongside good friend Shane Lowry recently, will be hoping to claim his 40th career win at Quail Hollow.
The Northern Irishman has already won three Wells Fargo titles and another good week would be ideal heading into the upcoming PGA Championship at Valhalla.
Wyndham Clark won this event last year, scooping the $3.6million prize in the Signature Event.
The American produced a brilliant display to finish 19 under par and see off his competition with ease.

Wells Fargo Championship: What has been said?
Clark claimed an emotional first PGA Tour victory at Quail Hollow last year before going on to win the US Open just a few weeks later.
After his brilliant win at the Wells Fargo, he said: “It’s been a long five years to get to this point, it was well worth the wait and I’m so grateful.
“I think in years past I might have folded.
“This time I just stayed patient and hung in there and got hot on the back side.
“There’s so many times I wanted to cry and break clubs – and I did break the club sometimes – in this journey and to get to this point is so sweet.
“It’s just amazing to finally do this.”
