Rory McIlroy - 4 Time Major Winner

Unbelieavable round today

Just class. After watching hideki's putt earlier, you just knew it had a great chance when it got to the top of the slope.

Great to see him finish 2nd (scottie won't blow it from here) - hopefully this means he will kick on now for the rest of the year

Great stuff from Rory - a win this year was there for him.

Brilliant round from Rory. He gave it everything. Scheffler's chip in on 3 was the break that settled it. He was just about to come under pressure, but has been able to coast home today.

Definitely a goosebumps moment.

You can still expect posters here to say that he can only do it when the pressure is off.

The pressure is never off at Augusta.

He was unbelievable to watch today

And the way Sky were treating him, you'd think he won it. He was never in contention as he was coming back from too far but hey, we just support him because he's Irish.

Just saw a journo sum it up perfectly. “Watching Mcilroy is like an addiction, the highs are very high, the lows very low, but you will always get your fix on the final day of a major when there isn’t a chance of winning”.

A win was never there for him at any stage. Scheffler was probably 10 shots better than him over the four days. McIlroy chipped in twice, went bogey free and should have been beaten by 5. A mad 4 putt when Scheffler was mentally already in getting his jacket gave two shots back. No player was beating Scheffler today and there was probably another gear there if required. He cruised home from the minute Smith was wet on 12.

Great 64 from McIlroy last night it has to be said, he made absolutely everything that he needed to. Aside from 2011, 2018 was his best chance to win at Augusta - final group on Sunday, totally pro McIlroy crowd and he bowed out tamely enough.

whatever your view on Rory is, when he is in the form he was last night, its mesmerising. Great entertainment.

I mostly agree with the Scheffler stuff but his chip in on 3 was a massive stroke of luck. Similar to McIlroys on 18. McIlroys other one was from 13 feet on the fringe so was as likely to go in as a putt from similar distance.

The only player in the field who didn’t shoot a 73 or worse was Scheffler and he deserved the win for that. Only Mcilroy, Lowry And Conners had a worst round of 73. Everyone else shot a round at least worse than that. Scheffler with a 74 today would have tied mcilroy and it wouldn’t have been a shock for him to shoot that. He went out and won it though and fair play to him.

Funnily enough (or not considering the score), some good wedge shots from Rory yesterday. 8 and 9 were well controlled and well played. His 3rd on 15 was very good and just unlucky not to bite on the second bounce and give him a kick in birdie.

He clearly plays better when he's freewheeling, going for it, and not thinking too much. It's a harder and harder mindset to enter as you get older, however, hence he can only really access it when the pressure is off and he has to go for it.

He entered this week saying how he was going to play patiently and not take so many shots on, it worked to a degree, as in he didn't shoot 76 in the poor weather, but it left him too far back to really challenge.

I love watching Rory in full flight and am delighted he gave a glimpse of what he's still capable of last night. Hopefully, it gives him back a little of that swagger and he can turn up to the next few majors expecting to play well and cut loose a little.

You're flogging a dead horse on that one. Rory's bunker shot was class and Scottie played a safe one (correct choice in the circumstance) that was extremely fortunate to go in. In fairness he probably would have held the par putt though!

Rory meant it, Scottie didn’t? I’m with Eagle on this one, Rory could be there for a week and he would be unlikely to hole that bunker shot again. Both were lucky, neither would have expected to hole it when addressing the ball. Both great shots.
