Rory McIlroy emerged victorious at the Masters, successfully defending his title at Augusta National Golf Club in Georgia, USA. This achievement places him alongside golfing greats such as Jack Nicklaus, Sir Nick Faldo, and Tiger Woods. McIlroy reflected on the significance of having the club chairman, Fred Ridley, place the Green Jacket on him, marking a special moment after last year's win. He noted that he felt more comfortable during the final rounds, having built a six-stroke lead without his best performance. Looking ahead, McIlroy plans to take a two-week break before competing in the US PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club near Philadelphia. He emphasized his desire to continue winning majors and expressed confidence in his ability to avoid the post-Masters lull he experienced last year, viewing future tournaments as opportunities for further success.
