Rory McIlroy is hunting down a second WGC-Dell Technologies Match Play title as he takes on Cameron Young in the semi-finals.
The Holywood golfer won the title in 2015, and imperious form off the tee has seen him reach the last four again in 2023.
McIlroy won all three of his group stage matches to make the knockout stages but needed 18 holes to beat Lucas Herbert and Xander Schauffele.

Now he takes on Cameron Young in the semi-final, who beat Kurt Kitayama in his quarter-final.
McIlroy has said that a victory at the attritional tournament would be very satisfying.
"I think winning the Match Play is always a massive accomplishment because of what you have to go through," said McIlroy.
"It's seven rounds and, especially this week, I feel like a lot of my matches have been really, really close, so to be able to pull them out when I've needed to has been very gratifying.
"Maybe there's a higher sense of satisfaction when you get through on Sunday night and you're able to win. I feel like it's maybe just more of an achievement mentally to do it rather than just winning a four-round stroke-play event."
Not only is McIlroy chasing silverware, but he is also chasing another monster payday.
The winner of the matchplay event will take home a cool $3,500,000 (€3,250,000), while the runner-up will receive $2,200,000 (€2,040,000).
Having reached the semi-finals, McIlroy has already guaranteed himself a cheque for at least $1,145,000 (€1,061,000).
