Rory McIlroy finally secured his long-desired Masters Tournament victory on Sunday, making him the sixth player in history to achieve a Career Grand Slam. Despite facing pressure during the final rounds, including a critical missed putt that nearly cost him the championship, he ultimately triumphed in sudden death playoffs. This monumental win, 11 years in the making, places McIlroy alongside legends like Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus, solidifying his status in golf history.
With the championship on his club, just five feet away from the hole on 18, McIlroy missed his putt - inviting Ryder Cup Teammate Justin Rose, 44, in for a sudden death playoff.
But the botched putt - not to mention the four-stroke lead McIlroy lost on the back nine - are all but forgotten now.
