Rory McIlroy won the Masters in a nail-biting thriller at Augusta on Sunday, becoming the sixth golfer to achieve the elusive career Grand Slam and the first since Tiger Woods in 2000.
McIlroy had a glorious chance to win it before the playoff but couldn't sink a short putt for par at the No. 18 hole, and he ended up facing Justin Rose in the playoff. He ultimately came out the other end with a green jacket, but he sure made it close up until the very end.
