AUGUSTA, Ga. — The Masters continues to be Rory McIlroy's kryptonite.
AUGUSTA, GEORGIA - APRIL 07: Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland reacts to a putt on the 18th green during the second round of the 2023 Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club on April 07, 2023 in Augusta, Georgia. AUGUSTA, Ga. — The Masters continues to be Rory McIlroy’s kryptonite.
It's yet another devasting finish for the Irishman, who needs only to win this tournament to become the sixth golfer to complete the Career Grand Slam. But since winning four majors between 2011-2014, McIlroy has yet to hoist another major trophy. That’s a whole lot better than this year. Bogies on two of his first three holes — which include the par-5 second, a true birdie hole — set the tone for a miserable round. While Brooks Koepka was taking advantage of the gettable morning conditions, McIlroy was racking up bogey after bogey, sending him sliding down the leaderboard.
Next year will be the 10th time McIlroy arrives at Augusta National with a chance to join Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan, Gene Sarazen and Gary Player. And he’ll be asked for the millionth time how he feels about his chances.
