McIlroy shot a final round 66 to claim victory on 21 under par while Lowry shot a 68 that included four birdies on the back nine to claim outright second.
As a result of his victory, McIlroy picked up a cheque for $3.6m dollars, or around €3.5m. Lowry walked away with around €2.1m, not bad for a week's work.
McIlroy and Lowry had made headlines earlier in the tournament when they both his holes in one. It was Lowry's third hole in one on the PGA Tour and the ace sparked fantastic celebrations.
