Rory McIlroy finally completed the career Grand Slam in April, when he overcame the demons that have plagued him at Augusta National to win the Masters for the first time in his career. It's a rare achievement that's only been done by five other golfers in PGA Tour history, and one that McIlroy had to battle for nearly a decade to complete.
McIlroy was addressing the media Wednesday ahead of the RBC Canadian Open. At one point, Keith Pelley, CEO of Maple Leafs Sports & Entertainment, gifted McIlroy a Toronto Maple Leafs sweater, prompting the Northern Ireland native to crack a perfectly timed joke at the expense of the city's beloved hockey franchise.
