The Masters 2025 key info
The first Major of the year was an historic and remarkable one as Rory McIlroy completed the career grand slam after finally sealing the Green Jacket. McIlroy played a rollercoaster final round, highlighted by birdies at 15 and 17, to match Justin Rose at 11-under-par before defeating him on the 1st extra hole with a birdie.
McIlroy became just the sixth man in history to secure the modern career grand slam and is now a five-time Major champion. He gets his own Green Jacket, a lifetime exemption and can set the menu for next year's Champions Dinner - one of many perks of winning The Masters.
