Defending Masters champion Rory McIlroy finally feels like he belongs
""Honestly, I felt like the career grand slam was my destination; I got there and realized it wasn't the destination.""
""What motivates me? What do I still want to achieve in the game? I think that's the story.""
""You think every time you achieve something or have success that you'll be happy, but then the goalposts move. And they just keep nudging a little bit further and further out of reach.""
""I think panic is the wrong word, but I didn't overreact on Thursday ... I stayed patient or as patient as I could be.""
Rory McIlroy, the defending Masters champion, feels he finally belongs at Augusta National after 18 tournament starts. He reflects on his career grand slam achievement, realizing it was a milestone rather than a destination. McIlroy emphasizes the importance of motivation and enjoyment in the journey of golf, acknowledging that success often leads to new goals. He recalls his unique experience as the first Masters winner with four double bogeys in a tournament, highlighting his patience and composure throughout the competition.
