It has been hanging in the air for over a decade. Every April, we have wondered: is this the year it happens?
And now, it has actually happened. Rory McIlroy has won The Masters – and with it, completed the career Grand Slam. A feat that only a handful of players in history have managed.
It wasn't easy. There have been years where things went really well, yet still fell just short. But he kept coming back. Week after week. Year after year.
It’s hard not to be happy for Rory. For the way he plays. For the way he speaks about the game. For the fact that he never truly gave up on that goal.
And now he stands there – with the jacket that had always been just out of reach.
Huge congratulations, Rory.
