Who Needs the $10 Million? McIlroy Wants FedExCup Trophy

ATLANTA — Rory McIlroy, whose season was interrupted by injury, said he just wants to get back to winning and does not care about the $10 million bonus that could come with victory at the Tour Championship.

"Luckily, that amount of money doesn't sort of mean much to me anymore," McIlroy said on Wednesday on the eve of the season-ending Tour Championship that caps the FedExCup playoffs and awards the bonus to the points leader.
