April 15, 2025 by

“It feels incredible” McIlroy said after sealing the deal in the 89th Masters tournament by defeating Justin Rose in a playoff.

The win makes McIlroy one of only six golfers to have secured the coveted career Grand Slam by winning the four major golf events – namely The Open, the US Open, the PGA Championship and the Masters.

“This is my 17th time here and I started to wonder if it would ever be my time,” McIlroy added following his Masters success.

“The last ten years coming here with the burden of the Grand Slam on my shoulders and trying to achieve that,” he added.

“I’m sort of wondering what we are going to talk about going into next year’s Masters. I’m honoured and thrilled and so proud to call myself a Masters champion.”
