This week’s PGA Championship venue is so well-suited to golf’s newest Grand Slam champion that Jordan Spieth jokingly described it as ‘Rory McIlroy Country Club’.

While the comment from Spieth - also looking to complete the career Grand Slam - was slightly tongue in cheek, there is no doubt that the Quail Hollow Club presents a glorious opportunity for McIlroy to continue his impressive start to the season.

It's the course where McIlroy claimed his maiden PGA Tour victory in 2010 and has won three more times since, including last year's Wells Fargo Championship, making it the venue where he has enjoyed more success in his career than any other.
