There were five, now there are six. Rory McIlroy has completed the career grand slam with a win at the 2025 Masters.
The Green Jacket – and a fifth major title – had alluded the Northern Irishman for so long until this Masters Sunday at Augusta National.
It could not, however, have been any more of an agonising run-in. McIlroy, 35, held a five-shot lead on the eight hole before losing his grasp on the trophy, and his eventual $4.2 million payout.
A resurgent Justin Rose forced extra holes, but McIlroy only needed one more go at the 18th hole to seal the deal.
Rose, meanwhile, who carded ten birdies in a final round 66, banked just north of $2.2 million for his third runner-up finish at the Masters – as part of an increased purse that stood at $21 million.
It’s now the second most lucrative major of all time, second only to last year’s US Open at Pinehurst where there was a total of $21.5 million up for grabs.
Meanwhile, Patrick Reed and Scottie Scheffler finished solo third and fourth, respectively, earning $1.428 million and $1.008 million.
