The apple hasn't fallen far from the tee in the McIlroy household

As you heard there, Rory McIlroy's four-year-old daughter Poppy has sunk a precipitous 30-foot downhill putt on the ninth hole of the annual par-3 contest at Augusta on Masters eve.

Nico Echavarria has won this year's event in a play-off with JJ Spaun, after both carded five-under par 22s in regulation.

If history is a guide, the Colombian's chances of winning the overall Masters this year are now cursed.

No player has won both in the same year since the abridged competition's introduction in 1960.
