Rory the winner, but Augusta the undefeated champion of the 89th Masters
The Masters has been run and won, and the great Rory McIlroy has fulfilled his destiny, despite being hunted down like a bloodied fox by the great hounds of our sport, Justin Rose, Ludvig Aberg, the ever-compelling Bryson DeChambeau, who thrilled us with sublime and ridiculous golf on a course we would sell a kidney to play. Augusta National remains golf's great muse. Augusta National is the champion forever.

Health and head space keys to McIlroy's Masters
After being cut off at the knees when Jay Monahan quite surprisingly went on television with the head of the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, to announce what was perceived then to be a “merger” between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, Rory McIlroy quit his role as the establishment’s pseudo-spokesman in the great pro golf imbroglio of our times. And it’s looked like the outlook has agreed with him since. The man looks like he’s free.

Hits and memories of Rory at Augusta
He’s missed the cut (three times), he’s led after three rounds, he’s notched four top-5s and eight top-10s. There were years he was never really in it, others when he most certainly was. And there were years when you thought – surely, this time – Rory McIlroy will up and win the first major championship of the year, The Masters, at venerable Augusta National in Georgia.
