While Rory Macqueloy Masters, Open Championships, US Open and US PGA Championship’s Grand Slam won only the sixth player, winning the Augusta Masters with a play-off win against Justin Rose, winning the North Ireland Golfar by winning the Augsta Masters with a play-off-win win. While Tiger Woods had become the last player to achieve the achievement before doing so on Sunday night, four other players had achieved a rare feat with Jean Sarzan, Ben Hogan, Jack Nickoss and Gary Player before Woods, who won all the Majors once in their career.
“Welcome to the club. Completing the Grand Slam in Augusta is something special. Your determination during this round, and shown through this whole journey, and now you are part of history. You are proud of.” Five -time masters winner Woods wrote X,
While Woods achieved the feat by winning the open championship in 2000, Gary Player is the oldest living member of the career who is the winner of the Grand Slam winners. The nine-time prominent winning player, who won the Masters three times in his career, earlier kicked the masters this week with the first 18-time prominent winner Jack Nickus and eight-time leading winner Tom Watson. The player praised Mcilroy, who won a leading gap for completing his career Grand Slam. “I have always said that he is the most talented player in the world today. He has the best swing from a mile. He is a difficult worker and he deserves everything. He had two shots. I will never forget till I live. I never saw such enthusiasm by the crowd. The player said BBC Radio 5,
Niclaus, who won the Masters six times in his career, also raised the title of McLaroy on Sunday, which would ‘take the world away from its shoulders’. “I am very happy for him. It will take the world away from its shoulders and now you are going to see very good golf from Rory McLero.” Niclaus told CBS America,
Mcilroy won his first Masters title with a play-off win against Justin Rose. The 35-year-old needed to be equal to the 18th hole as he was born of a stroke, but missed a 5-foot equal put to force a play-off against Rose. Earlier in the day, McLaroy took a two-shot lead at the beginning of the day, but was average round below the average round on Sunday before making his way on the last six holes before forcing the First Masters Playoff in eight years. “There were two shots that I would never forget as long as I live. First when he was at number seven and he was in trees, there was a small difference and he had taken a big swing on a small green color and it was finished by four feet from the hole and then in the end, after seeing that he was hit on 13 and 14, and then, after that, the first time, he gave a mess,” BBC Radio 5,
