    A weight off the shoulders and a green jacket onto them for Rory McIlroy after a career-defining victory

    A weight off the shoulders and a green jacket onto them for Rory McIlroy after a career-defining victory


    The Northern Irish golfer's completed a career grand slam - clinching the Masters with a playoff win over Justin Rose.

    McIlroy blew a four-shot lead in 2011 - and had the same advantage today, before it was whittled away.

    He's been asked what he would now tell his 2011-self.



    Rose is philosophical after a second playoff defeat at Augusta - adding to his 2017 heartbreak.
