Stephen Farry MLA: “I would like to pass on my congratulations on a thoroughly well deserved victory to one of Northern Ireland’s best global ambassadors, Rory McIlroy.
“To win a second Major at such a young age shows the remarkable talent that he has and I am sure more will follow.
“All around the world, people are talking about this victory and his home country which can only be a good thing for golfers coming and visiting Northern Ireland. With the recent success of the Irish Open being hosted by Royal Portrush, I am sure that this victory will again make Northern Ireland the golfing capital of the world.”
