After a final reflection round, Rory Mcilroy clung to winning the 89th Masters tournament in a playoff of a hole on Sunday, winning his fifth important championship and first since 2014.
Upon entering the day with a two -shooting advantage over Bryson Dechambeau for the first place, Mcilroy somehow found neck and neck with Justin Rose after 15 holes.
I only needed a pair in hole 18 to win, Mcilroy, on the other hand, lazy to establish the playoff against Rose. Playing the same hole again to determine a winner, Mcilroy recorded a Birdie while Rose shot at the same time.
It was almost a massive victory that came from Rose for Rose, who shot 66 of the final round, nine blows better than he shot on day 3. He finished his day tied with Mcilroy due to the advantage at 11 under a couple despite starting seven blows back.
Mcilroy, who was 12 years old after three rounds, was only 10 years after 14 holes. But he took 15 and 17 to recover the advantage. On the 18th, I still had the opportunity to stop after a shot in the bunker, but a relatively short putt was lost.
The day had an unfavorable beginning for Mcilroy, who hit a double Bogey in his first hole. After hitting three Birdies between holes 3 and 10, Mcilroy’s advantage began to sneak out, since 11-14 holes became bogey, torque, double Bogey and Bogey.
The pause prepared the stage for the dramatic final, but Mcilroy was finally able to avoid a collapse similar to the 2011 masters, when the golfer began the final round with a four -shooting advantage, but fired an 80 on day 4.
Victoria ends a championship drought over 11 years for the second golfer in the world. Mcilroy had not won one of the main sport tournaments since 2014, when he took the United States open.
Previously, the best Mcilroy ending in The Masters was second in 2022. In addition to a green jacket, Mcilroy will take $ 4.2 million home as the winner of the Masters. Rose, who started the day tied in sixth place, earned $ 2,268 million with his increase in the final round.
The next golf specialty will be the PGA championship, which begins on May 15 at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte.
