The Ulsterman completed golf’s career Grand Slam in April with an emotional breakthrough to claim the Masters at Augusta.

He was also part of an away Ryder Cup triumph, won the Irish Open and topped the European Tour’s season-ending rankings for a seventh time.

That broke a tie with Seve Ballesteros and left just Colin Montgomerie, who achieved the feat eight times, now ahead of him.
