CHARLOTTE, North Carolina – Tournament officials announced today that World No. 2 and four-time Truist Championship winner Rory McIlroy is set to make a highly anticipated return to Quail Hollow Club for the 2026 Truist Championship.

One of the most accomplished players in the history of the event, McIlroy captured the 2024 Truist Championship in record-setting fashion, earning his fourth victory at Quail Hollow (2010, 2015, 2021, 2024). The 2024 triumph also marked the second time McIlroy claimed the title on Mother’s Day, having previously done so in 2021—further cementing his special connection to the famed venue.

Since lifting the trophy in 2024, McIlroy has continued to elevate his legendary resume, reaching the milestone of 30 PGA TOUR victories. His recent run includes a win at the 2025 PLAYERS Championship and historic back-to-back victories at the Masters in 2025 and 2026, underscoring his status as one of the game’s most dominant forces.

With his proven success at Quail Hollow and continued excellence on the global stage, McIlroy’s return promises to be one of the marquee storylines of the 2026 Truist Championship.

The Truist Championship will issue an update on the full field of 72 top-ranked professionals on Friday, May 1 at 5 p.m. ET.
