00:24:24The last five holes I could really enjoy, you know, I was like, okay, I've got an eight-shot
00:24:31lead. I remember just, like, trying to find my dad in the crowd. You know, there's so
00:24:39many people there, and I couldn't really find him. But walking down the 18th, he's walking
00:24:45down the left side. Him being there and being able to watch me fulfill a lifelong dream of
00:25:01winning a major championship.
00:25:05Rory McIlroy, the 2011 United States Open champion.
00:25:11After what happened, I mean, you talk about being resilient. I mean, that's what you call.
00:25:27I think that made me believe that, you know, I could really do some special things in the game.
00:25:42Bryson DeChambeau has a one-shot lead. Rory McIlroy drops to 10 under.
00:25:52Gorgeous control from McIlroy as the ball curves around the back.
00:25:55It's just a little slim finger of green, and McIlroy's managed to find it.
00:26:02Now McIlroy, cranny hit straight back here. If this goes in, the 35-year-old will go back
00:26:10into a share of the lead.
00:26:14Borrowing from left to right, sends it on its way, looks good, and in, and in for McIlroy,
00:26:19the first birdie of his final round.
00:26:24And Bryson DeChambeau is going to drop a shot here. Rory McIlroy is going to be back in the lead
00:26:29at the Masters.
00:26:30Oh, you're going to love it, haven't you? You really have got to love Augusta on a Sunday.
00:26:35It is absolute madness, and this is going to be just incredible theatre if it carries on like this.
00:26:45With the honor, it would be good to hit a good shot here. Put the pressure on.
00:26:51And he has.
00:26:55He's got a chance to actually have a bigger lead than he did at the start of the day.
00:26:59That's exactly right.
00:27:01Knock this one in.
00:27:03Go three ahead.
00:27:10And now the walls for Rory here at the fourth.
00:27:15Watch this, Trev. Watch this reaction.
00:27:29I first meet Rory in 2011, so he's won the US Open at the time.
00:27:34He had this unwavering clarity on his long-term goals in golf.
00:27:39At age nine, for him to say, you know, I want to turn professional, win all the majors,
00:27:44it's a pretty bold ambition.
00:27:48I want to be remembered as one of the best players that ever played the game.
00:27:56But to be remembered as one of the best, you need to knock off a few of those major championships.
00:28:05There are four majors.
00:28:07The Masters Tournament, the US Open, the Open Championship, and the PGA Championship.
00:28:16The Moptop makes its way up the 18th.
00:28:21This is for the all-time margin of victory in PGA Championship history.
00:28:34I didn't want the persona of being content with doing what I've done in the game of golf.
00:28:38I wanted to prove that I had the hunger to do more.
00:28:43The hype built incredibly after 2014, when he won the Open at Hoylake.
00:28:49The champion.
00:28:52McElroy led the British Open wire to wire.
00:28:54McElroy joins Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the only players to have won three majors by the age of
00:28:5925.
00:29:01So here's a question, is he the next Tiger Woods?
00:29:04Golf may have a new Tiger Woods.
00:29:08He was positioned as, you know, the next successor in the world of golf.
00:29:13You know, I think that definitely came with a level of expectation, no question.
00:29:31I mean, what a summer.
00:29:32You became the first European player to win three separate majors, which just leaves the Masters.
00:29:37That's the next one.
00:29:38The next target?
00:29:40Yeah, the green jacket.
00:29:41Yeah, that's the one that I'm in for next year.
00:29:43It would complete the career Grand Slam.
00:29:45I think only five golfers in history have got it, so it would be a huge thing to go for
00:29:50at 25 years of age.
00:29:54Trying to join that list of people that have won the Grand Slam,
00:29:58it's like you're trying to put yourself among these absolute legends of the game.
00:30:07Gene Sireson.
00:30:09Ben Hogan.
00:30:12Gary Player.
00:30:15Jack Nicklaus.
00:30:18Tiger Woods.
00:30:19I absolutely idolized him.
00:30:22And that's where, you know, there's all of these little doubts that start to creep in.
00:30:27Am I worthy of this?
00:30:31Is this what I'm supposed to do?
00:30:37It's like imposter syndrome.
00:30:39Like, it's like, you know, no, why have, like, this, me?
00:30:46I'm part of, you know, that's where it sort of gets to.
00:30:50I think that's the scary part.
00:30:52Rory McIlroy for the Masters next year in his first green jacket and the career Grand Slam.
00:30:58And he leaves it short.
00:31:00No.
00:31:01Cannot do that in April.
00:31:04I think the significance of the Masters for him and for, you know, the wider golf story, it became very
00:31:10real after 2014.
00:31:16There's been heartbreak so many times, this is his 11th chance to complete that career Grand Slam.
00:31:24For most of my career, it's never just been about the Masters.
00:31:30And from 2015 to 2025, it was the Masters and...
00:31:41I feel like that Grand Slam conversation just brought a lot of baggage with it.
00:31:47Maybe I didn't put myself all the way out there in this tournament at certain points because, you know, if
00:31:54you get just this close to doing it and then it's taken away for some reason, like, that's hard to
00:32:00handle.
00:32:03As the years have went on, like, I talked to different people about that pressure.
00:32:11I had lunch with Jack.
00:32:13Jack Nicklaus receives a rousing ovation as he walks onto the final green.
00:32:20We talked about all kinds of things with the game and what to do and I talked to him about
00:32:26patience.
00:32:27Just be patient with it.
00:32:28It's going to come.
00:32:29You're too good a player for it not to come.
00:32:34Many people do it different ways.
00:32:38You figure out what your abilities are.
00:32:41You only try to do what you can do, not what somebody else can do.
00:32:44I knew what Jack was getting at because my tendency when I was younger was to play the aggressive swashbuckling
00:32:50golf.
00:32:52There was some drive by Rory McIlroy.
00:32:54My goodness, he's...
00:32:55It's going to be hard to beat a guy like that that hits so bloody far.
00:32:59Second from the pine straw.
00:33:02Oh, that's another good one.
00:33:03Oh, beautiful shot.
00:33:04That sat down like a butterfly with sore feet.
00:33:08But I would say I was too much at either side of the spectrum so I'd be really swashbuckling and
00:33:14really, really aggressive.
00:33:15But then when it mattered and I was in contention, I would get way too tentative and way too cautious.
00:33:23Oh, he's lost it as well.
00:33:25I don't believe this.
00:33:27You want to play smart, but you also want to recognize when you have your chances.
00:33:35Rory has put some tough holes behind him.
00:33:38We're going to the top seventh.
00:33:44It is the most difficult fairway to hit this week.
00:33:46Miss this fairway at your peril.
00:33:56Seven was a tee shot all week that I struggled with.
00:34:06Not happy with the tee shot.
00:34:10This is very far left.
00:34:12Hits one of the trees over there.
00:34:19Bryson looking for a spark.
00:34:25Give up some distance for accuracy.
00:34:33When I was walking up to it, I'm just like, please have something.
00:34:37Have some sort of shot, some sort of gap.
00:34:38Like, the one thing Harry and I always say to ourselves is, all I want is a backswing and a
00:34:43gap.
00:34:45Just talking to Harry Diamond, his caddy.
00:34:48Yeah, I mean, I think I can get it.
00:34:51Pretty much there.
00:34:53Harry was begging me.
00:34:55He's like, just chip it out.
00:34:56We can make four this way.
00:34:57I'm like, no, no, I've got a gap.
00:34:59I can see a gap here.
00:35:00And he's like, what are you talking about?
00:35:01There's nothing there.
00:35:02I'm like, no, no, I can get a nine iron up and I can do this.
00:35:07I like it.
00:35:08I feel like I've got a shot.
00:35:23One little bit of that pine tree.
00:35:28And the ball lands on the green and almost goes into the hole.
00:35:32Wow, what a shot from Rory McIlroy.
00:35:35And he's roaring with laughter.
00:35:37He cannot believe it.
00:35:39That's the kid in McIlroy.
00:35:41That's the young kid playing golf.
00:35:43He cannot believe he's pulled that off.
00:35:47To take those shots on at such a crucial time, nobody else is going to do it, only him.
00:35:55Let's find out what Bryson is thinking.
00:36:02It was actually very well played.
00:36:08Yeah, just brilliant.
00:36:15If there was a fault at Rory, I think he has a tendency not to manage his game when he
00:36:22has pressure situations.
00:36:40He didn't think he could.
00:36:52Bryson's not going to go away today.
00:37:01That final round was made maybe a little bigger because of what happened at Pinehurst the year before.
00:37:08You know, another chance to win a major.
00:37:11Got off to a great start.
00:37:13I just, you know, I just got a little uneasy and a bit tense.
00:37:19Excruciating short misses for McIlroy.
00:37:24I was in the 18th tower calling that final round.
00:37:27Nobody's had more pressure on him over the last 10 years.
00:37:30Everybody in the world knows that Rory hasn't won since 2014, won a major.
00:37:37Bryson at Pinehurst has kind of won over the crowd a little bit.
00:37:42What Bryson has is real innate grit.
00:37:46And you don't feel grit from Rory.
00:37:51I know Rory has said it.
00:37:53Afterwards, that's, you know, he probably got out of his rhythm a little bit by thinking a little too much
00:38:00about the situation, which, how do you not?
00:38:10What happens on nine between you and Bryson?
00:38:13So we both hit good drives in the eye, and we both hit really good second shots.
00:38:18Here's Bryson.
00:38:23It's a beauty.
00:38:35Big shot for Rory.
00:38:36Must fly it to the hole to avoid the shoulder off the bunker.
00:38:42And it's judged really, really nicely by McIlroy.
00:38:47He's putting uphill from about the same distance as Bryson DeChambeau, trying to get it to 13 under par.
00:38:55I thought it very clearly was my putt.
00:38:59I thought his ball was slightly closer than mine.
00:39:02We sort of look at each other, and he's like, I'm like, well, I think it's me to go.
00:39:07And he's like, well, I think it's me to go.
00:39:09It's a very gamesmanship-y match play thing.
00:39:13Really, both of us want to putt first, because if you can hold that putt before your opponent puts pressure
00:39:18on them,
00:39:20he goes, well, why don't we just throw a tee up for it to see who goes first?
00:39:25And I'm like, no, this is the final round of the Masters.
00:39:28This isn't some, like, game on a Tuesday afternoon somewhere.
00:39:33I'm like, no.
00:39:35I wasn't going to wilt in that situation.
00:39:38I was just going to stand firm.
00:39:41So I said, there's a ref, right?
00:39:42Like, why don't we get him up to come and measure?
00:39:44And he said, no, no, it's fine.
00:39:46You can go anyway.
00:39:47I don't care.
00:39:50And I just felt like that was a really big moment.
00:39:54McIlroy putting first for Birdie.
00:40:03McIlroy.
00:40:10I was proud of myself for holding my grind.
00:40:15Now the demand is on DeChambeau to answer it back.
00:40:18He has to answer right here.
00:40:28And McIlroy has told him who's the boss here.
00:40:34McIlroy will go to the second side with a four-shot lead.
00:40:41I felt like going into that back nine that Bryson wasn't really a factor in the tournament at that point.
00:41:06It was Gary Player, the three-time Masters champion, who said, you don't win the Masters with strategy.
00:41:12You win it with nerves, and we're going to see some nerves tested here on that back nine today.
00:41:21It's not going to make it.
00:41:23You think that that could go in the water?
00:41:24Yes, the ripples tell the story.
00:41:29This is where it started to come undone back in 2011.
00:41:37You know, for Rory, having the lead there, I'm sure the memories of 2011, going back to the tenth hole.
00:41:46How's this T-shot going to go?
00:41:53My goodness.
00:41:54He must have hit a tree.
00:41:59We'll remember what happened back in 2011.
00:42:052011 was the big one where I probably had the greatest chance.
00:42:11But for me, in my mind, it wasn't just 2011, it was all the years after that where I felt
00:42:17like I had chances and just I didn't do this right or I didn't do that right.
00:42:22I could go through every single year and tell you where it went wrong.
00:42:27Welcome to this tradition unlike any other.
00:42:30Wow, it's gone off sideways.
00:42:34Welcome to this tradition unlike any other.
00:42:40How do you manage wanting to win this tournament, but not the desire being so big that it becomes an
00:42:46obstacle?
00:42:47Hello, friends and friends. Welcome to this tradition unlike any other.
00:42:52It just hit off a sprinkler hat on up into the azaleas.
00:42:57Do you think all the expectation about the kind of swan has had an effect on it?
00:43:01Do you think you found the balance between how that motivates you and how that pressures you?
00:43:07You feel the weight, the scrutiny it takes to be considered the greatest talent in the game.
00:43:12Do you feel like you're sort of middle-aged now or in your prime or how do you how do
00:43:15you see it?
00:43:15Do you believe you'll win this if not this year some year?
00:43:22Do you feel like you'll win this year?
00:43:23Do you think you're doing this right now?
00:43:24Do you feel like I'm losing it?
00:43:24Do you feel like it should be the best of yourอก?
00:43:31Do you feel like it's the best of your second-dose?
00:43:48I used to take Rory out every Sunday, play nine holes, I used to change all the holes
00:43:57on the scorecard, the first hole being a par four, I used to change it to a par five.
00:44:05It encouraged Rory, you know, so at the end of the day, we used to go in for the Coke
00:44:09and a pack of crisps and the boys and the boys say, well, what did you shoot today?
00:44:13Three under.
00:44:14You know, Rory used to love that, you know, he's really in sight, you know, three under
00:44:18par, that's brilliant, Rory, you know.
00:44:21And you see, when Rory started to shoot under par, he had no fear, because it was all in
00:44:29there.
00:44:31So many around the world, raptured by this moment, anxious to see it happen.
00:44:47Perfect.
00:44:49He's a different player today than he was in 2011.
00:44:57My start on Sunday in 2025 was way worse than my start in 2011.
00:45:05It would have been really easy to get frustrated after that first nine.
00:45:09But I think because of all that experience over the past 14 years, I didn't panic.
00:45:14I knew there was still a long way to go.
00:45:17The club comes out of his hands.
00:45:22It doesn't matter.
00:45:24What a shot.
00:45:29I felt like my patience was rewarded with how I played that hole.
00:45:35And into the hole!
00:45:38It's another birdie for Rory McIlroy!
00:45:43And the triple bogey back in 2011 is a distant memory for McIlroy.
00:45:58It was surprising to me that he wasn't on his game.
00:46:02I think a lot of people thought he would go out there and really contend.
00:46:07When you had this pairing of Rory Bryson in the first nine holes, and Rory's got a big
00:46:14lead now, it's almost like you forgot there were other players playing in the tournament.
00:46:20I'm watching Justin Rose a few holes ahead of Rory.
00:46:27Long way away here for birdie at 11.
00:46:29Well, he's going to need something special if that is going to transpire.
00:46:34Oh!
00:46:35That's special!
00:46:38Justin Rose!
00:46:41Not out of it yet.
00:46:44With the emergence of Justin in the back nine, all of a sudden,
00:46:49it's like, okay, you know, here we go.
00:46:56Let's head toward the first mound.
00:46:58Gentle.
00:47:04That is six inches away from being wet.
00:47:09He said all week he wasn't going to pay any attention to the leaderboards.
00:47:13I wonder if he took a little peek.
00:47:18Just right.
00:47:20That's what Rory's concerned, there's no lead big enough because this guy is charging.
00:47:24Justin Rose for birdie.
00:47:27Justin Rose for birdie.
00:47:28Oh, my goodness!
00:47:29Tied for second!
00:47:32That brings pressure, but I still had the lead.
00:47:36Should Rory have another stumble, Justin Rose could be in position.
00:47:46Let's see if Rory chooses the conservative target here on 12.
00:48:01That's just fine.
00:48:04I made a good two putt, make three there.
00:48:10I'm like, I've got through 10, 11, 12 and even par.
00:48:13Like, I'm very happy.
00:48:17And he will march off to the 13th team.
00:48:22Bobby Jones famously wrote that several tournaments have been won or lost here.
00:48:29A lot of people's chances to win the Masters have become unraveled on the 13th hole.
00:48:37I think this is the golf tournament, this shot right here.
00:48:41There's bunkers to the left, there's water to the front and the right.
00:48:46And his hopes, the first green jacket may have just sunk to the bottom of Ray's Creek.
00:48:52Now we're going into another dimension again.
00:48:58You're trying to overcome all of the history, these memories, all these different things
00:49:06that are going through your head while you're playing that golf course and trying to win this massive tournament.
00:49:16And that's one of the hurdles that I have found so hard to overcome is like,
00:49:21you have to get over the demons you have on that course,
00:49:23but you also have to get over all those other little ghosts that are lurking around the corner that aren't
00:49:29yours either.
00:49:36So, usually, I would approach it as a hole that I can get to the green in two and give
00:49:42myself an eagle opportunity.
00:49:44But I didn't want to take on too much risk.
00:49:50I turn to Harry and say, at this point, I've got a nice little bit of a cushion and I'm
00:49:54like,
00:49:54do you like playing this as a three-shotter?
00:49:57And he's like, love it.
00:49:59And he's like, love it.
00:50:01So, I hit three-wood off the tee.
00:50:09And then I lay up with an eight-iron.
00:50:15The first two shots went as well as they could have.
00:50:22That's that scoreboard I was talking about.
00:50:23As you walk up 13, it's impossible not to see it.
00:50:27I tried most of the week to avoid those big white scoreboards,
00:50:30which is easier said than done.
00:50:33Once I got to the ball, I think Justin had just made another birdie.
00:50:41An in.
00:50:43Are you kidding me?
00:50:46And suddenly, the pressure is going to become enormous on McElroy.
00:50:52There was a bit of a reaction from the crowd.
00:51:06I'd make my backswing and at the last moment,
00:51:13I sort of just leaned into it a bit.
00:51:20Oh, completely tightened up.
00:51:21Oh, whoa.
00:51:29Can't explain it.
00:51:30He's blocked this short little shot by miles.
00:51:36Oh, whoa.
00:51:37Another poor shot.
00:51:39Under the extreme pressure.
00:51:41So now he's got to go for a bogey.
00:51:44Makes you wonder about the strategy of just backing off
00:51:48and deciding from the tee
00:51:49that you're going to play this as a three shotter.
00:51:51Your adrenaline, your body has been conditioned
00:51:54to just go for it today.
00:52:03Especially the way he played those shots of seven, Jimmy,
00:52:06when he went the nine irons through the trees,
00:52:08over the trees,
00:52:09was so happy and bouncing around and so aggressive.
00:52:14This is crucial.
00:52:16This to limit the damage.
00:52:24And that's a double for McElroy.
00:52:28His fourth of the week.
00:52:31No player has won the Masters
00:52:33after making four double bogeys or worse.
00:52:38And the Masters is wide open once again.
00:52:46And now the spectators, these patrons,
00:52:48are feeling that something is really brewing
00:52:50over the course of this final couple of holes.
00:52:54It was the first time where I'd had a moment in the tournament
00:52:58where my mind didn't automatically go to like a positive place.
00:53:06Roy's lost a spit in his mouth right now.
00:53:10Roy's lost a spit in his mouth right now.
00:53:11Cannot believe it.
00:53:24He's got to keep the train on the tracks now.
00:53:29My thing with Augusta, I think, during the course of my career,
00:53:32it would be like one stretch that would ruin the tournament for me.
00:53:37Big swing at it.
00:53:40And comes up short.
00:53:45Because a little bit of the scar tissue had built up,
00:53:47I was like always waiting for something bad to happen.
00:53:54McElroy for his par.
00:54:13And he has now lost the lead at the 89th Masters Tournament.
00:54:23Just when you thought it was a sure thing,
00:54:25now you're like, you can't win now.
00:54:29I had to go and pour Rosie a drink.
00:54:32Calmer down.
00:54:34You know, I actually had a drink myself.
00:54:38I mean, I know Rory like a pack of my hand.
00:54:44You see, each year coming up to the Masters,
00:54:48Rory was always, he wasn't Rory.
00:54:51No.
00:54:52He was always very...
00:54:55edgy, is that the word?
00:54:57If you talked about the Masters, he was a bit, like, jumpy, you know.
00:55:02He was trying too hard.
00:55:05I don't know if I'm proud to admit this or not proud to admit this,
00:55:08but I've tried a lot of things going into Augusta.
00:55:11Whether it's getting to the tournament really early,
00:55:14getting to the tournament really late,
00:55:15not playing the Par 3 tournament the day before,
00:55:17playing the Par 3 tournament,
00:55:18not doing media one year,
00:55:19playing practice rounds the weeks prior,
00:55:21or not playing practice rounds the week prior.
00:55:24Hypnosis.
00:55:26No, it's not like that.
00:55:28It's not hypnosis like you think where...
00:55:30You're not very deep asleep.
00:55:32Someone taps you and knocks you out,
00:55:35and, you know, there's a little more science to it.
00:55:41My game was excelling at, like, the sort of run-of-the-mill tour stop,
00:55:45but once I got to the Masters, I would play well, but not well enough.
00:55:50People would always compare it to earlier in my career,
00:55:53and the major record earlier in my career,
00:55:56and I started to almost resent the major championships
00:56:00for having such a massive importance in the game.
00:56:05It just, that, it started to eat away at me.
00:56:09I hadn't won a major for ten years now.
00:56:14I think I lost probably a little bit of my love for the game
00:56:17in that time period.
00:56:23You know, that childlike joy and enthusiasm?
00:56:29How you gonna get out of that one?
00:56:33I've always been very comfortable on my own,
00:56:37and sometimes I'm stubborn,
00:56:39and sometimes I'm reluctant to reach out for help,
00:56:44and I feel like I can figure it out on my own.
00:56:48But I needed to get over that.
00:56:57I remember I was really struggling,
00:56:59and I drove from the Scottish Open
00:57:02to the Open Championship at Birkdale,
00:57:05and I listened to the audiobook
00:57:07Golf is Not a Game of Perfect by Bob Rotella.
00:57:10Too often, Freud's theories are boiled down to a belief
00:57:14that people are the victim of circumstances beyond their control.
00:57:18I don't buy that.
00:57:20A person with great dreams can achieve great things.
00:57:25A person without the confidence to pursue his or her dreams
00:57:28has consigned himself or herself
00:57:30to a life of frustration and mediocrity.
00:57:34I've known Bob Rotella
00:57:37basically the whole way throughout my career.
00:57:39And I'm like, why don't I just call him?
00:57:40Why don't I just call him?
00:57:44You know, we're all dealing with doubt and fear.
00:57:48Failure never ruins anybody.
00:57:51Doubt and fear will kill you.
00:57:54With Rory, I mean, we prepare by anticipating
00:57:58we're going to miss all kinds of shots and putts.
00:58:00We're going to get all kinds of bad breaks.
00:58:03But you have to see what you want
00:58:05rather than what you don't want or fear might happen.
00:58:13Rory McIlroy has watched his lead disappear.
00:58:17He knows the magnitude of the moment now.
00:58:22Rory and I talk a lot about how do you feel when you're playing your best golf?
00:58:27You know, when you're like the happiest, when you're most joy-filled,
00:58:31and you're really loving the game that you tell me you love.
00:58:35When you walk off the golf course every night,
00:58:37if you can go back to your room, look in the mirror and go,
00:58:40man, I loved how I felt out there today,
00:58:42you know you gave yourself your best chance.
00:58:45And that's all we can do.
00:58:48So Kenny hit one great tee shot on the par fives,
00:58:51and it changes day.
00:58:59He could be blocked out.
00:59:01He's in the fairway, but he could be blocked out with his second shot.
00:59:05A little grimace from him.
00:59:08Rory's got to play about a 20-yard hook.
00:59:10He's hitting out of the shadows.
00:59:11Left-hand side of 15.
00:59:14Yeah, I mean, best-case scenario is throw it in that right bunker
00:59:18and try and get it up and down.
00:59:21I needed to pull something out of the bag at that point
00:59:24because, you know, I was going in the wrong direction.
00:59:27When you're amped up and when you're under pressure,
00:59:29those are the hardest, for me anyway,
00:59:32they've been the hardest shots to hit.
00:59:39I stood up.
00:59:41And I made the most trusting, committed swing.
00:59:50I knew it as soon as I hit it,
00:59:52and that's when I started to walk after it.
00:59:55Is this enough?
00:59:58It is!
01:00:01Oh, here it comes!
01:00:06The shot of a lifetime!
01:00:18That was one of the most fantastic shots I've ever seen.
01:00:21First of all, I don't think many people would have tried it,
01:00:23but I think he felt like he needed to at the time.
01:00:26Sometimes you feel like you need to make a shot and you do it.
01:00:30I'll remember the feeling of hitting that shot
01:00:34for the rest of my life.
01:00:38I don't know if I'll ever hit a better golf shot
01:00:43under that amount of pressure again in my career.
01:00:52The ploys to make Eagle to take the lead.
01:01:04Rory has a chance to put a hand on the light switch right here.
01:01:16That was feeble.
01:01:19He goes back to look at it.
01:01:21There's the bad news.
01:01:22He's got to live with this.
01:01:22This is about exercising demons here, Carl.
01:01:24He's not done exercising.
01:01:26Yeah, I don't know why he went back over here to look at it.
01:01:28That was a bad stroke.
01:01:29He knows it.
01:01:32So it's a pretty still to take the lead.
01:01:36It's excruciating what you've got to do to try to close this deal.
01:01:42One day, you know, when he was a teenager,
01:01:45I heard somebody in the crowd say,
01:01:49if that kid could putt, he'd win everything.
01:01:57It was my least favorite part of the game growing up.
01:02:02I always enjoyed the longer part of the game better.
01:02:06I always enjoyed the driver.
01:02:07I always enjoyed hitting iron.
01:02:11The closer you get to the hole,
01:02:14the more tense you can be.
01:02:18I always felt like, well, it has to feel hard
01:02:20because that's what it's always felt like.
01:02:23And then when you feel like you've hit a perfect putt,
01:02:25that doesn't go in, you start to question.
01:02:28For example, on 15,
01:02:31I missed that putt on the low side.
01:02:33So then when I'm hitting the putt on 16,
01:02:35I'm like, well,
01:02:36that putt at the last broke more than I thought.
01:02:38Maybe I should give it a little less break.
01:02:47And then you miss it on the high side.
01:02:50Two putts in a row that could have easily gone down.
01:02:58Rose has a putt to tie the lead.
01:03:07And in the hole!
01:03:09Got a chance!
01:03:10Oh, wow!
01:03:11What a putt!
01:03:12Justin Rose!
01:03:16No lead is safe around here.
01:03:22We're all guilty at points in our careers,
01:03:25whether it's part of your swing, short game,
01:03:28or on the putting green,
01:03:29with thinking about the mechanics of how to,
01:03:33reading the instruction manual,
01:03:35how you're supposed to do it,
01:03:37rather than just letting it happen.
01:03:41It looks pretty good.
01:03:44Yes, it's in the fairway.
01:03:46He needs a birdie,
01:03:47either on 17 or 18,
01:03:50to win it outright.
01:03:53When I first helped Rory with putting,
01:03:56the brunt of what we talked about,
01:03:58this is resilience.
01:04:00You have to have that
01:04:01more so in the putting green
01:04:03than any other part of the game,
01:04:04because you don't go with 18 putts.
01:04:06You know, you miss almost every hole,
01:04:09you're missing a putt, right?
01:04:12He's gonna have this putt for birdie,
01:04:14to move to 12 under,
01:04:15and the lead with one hole remaining.
01:04:20When the best players in the world
01:04:22miss putts,
01:04:24yeah, they can get angry or they can get upset,
01:04:27but they know how to get back there
01:04:29and give it a chance to be great again.
01:04:36Yeah!
01:04:39Rory McIlroy will take a one-stroke lead
01:04:42to the 72nd hole
01:04:45here at the 89th Masters.
01:04:49Justin had finished at that point,
01:04:51and then all of a sudden was like,
01:04:53wow, I, you know, I need a par to win Masters.
01:05:03How hard is this tee shot just under normal conditions?
01:05:06It's the narrowest on the golf course.
01:05:13What a time to deliver this.
01:05:18He walked after it.
01:05:20Careful.
01:05:22It's a beauty.
01:05:24One step closer.
01:05:30And now the moment for Rory McIlroy.
01:05:40Oh, he's gone in the bunker.
01:05:45He has to get up and down from the sand.
01:05:47And if he's going to do this,
01:05:50he will have done it the hardest, hardest way imaginable.
01:05:55I don't have any words to describe what I've just seen
01:05:58because that's impossible for any top-class player,
01:06:01let alone someone as good as Rory McIlroy,
01:06:04to miss the green at 125 yards.
01:06:12If you listen to televised golf,
01:06:15they're constantly talking about how you can't make mistakes like that
01:06:20if you want to win tournaments like this.
01:06:23And, of course, everything I teach is, well, of course you can.
01:06:26People do it all the time.
01:06:32So, how do you respond when you miss a shot?
01:06:38Just stay patient, stay patient.
01:06:40Wait for good things to happen.
01:06:43Again, under normal conditions,
01:06:47he would get this up and down.
01:06:54The ball was in a good spot.
01:06:56It was in a good lie. It was on the upslope.
01:06:58I was like, if you need to get a ball up and down from a bunker,
01:07:01this is the lie that you want.
01:07:27There's a putt to win the Masters.
01:07:30So, you know, you have the...
01:07:32There's a putt to win the Masters.
01:07:32That steady murmur of the crowd that goes to deathly silence
01:07:35while you're over a putt.
01:07:39It's crickets.
01:07:42How do you stay athletic and instinctive and hit it
01:07:47and not think about everything that's at hand
01:07:51for the career grand slam?
01:08:02The story's been written a million times.
01:08:08The questions have been asked repeatedly.
01:08:13When? If?
01:08:15Can you do it?
01:08:17How badly do you want it?
01:08:23All of those moments lead to this.
01:08:35Two.
01:08:44Three.
01:08:47Two.
01:08:48One.
01:08:50Two.
01:08:51Three.
01:08:51One.
01:08:51One.
01:08:52.
01:09:06Going to a playoff.
01:09:12After that disappointment, will he be able to regroup, reset?
01:09:16.
01:09:23I should have got it done in regulation.
01:09:26I should have made a four from where I drove that ball.
01:09:29There's just all these different things that are going through your head.
01:09:35He just wasn't up to it.
01:09:38He underperforms in the heat of battle.
01:09:41He got on the precipice of winning this tournament,
01:09:43and instead of driving over the line, he hesitated.
01:09:49.
01:09:56It's a pretty long walk from the 18th green to scoring.
01:10:00There is a definite tension in the air.
01:10:06But then, I'm walking with Harry, and Harry said to me, he said,
01:10:11pal, we would have taken this position on Monday morning.
01:10:14And it just snapped me into such a good frame of mind.
01:10:19And I was like, yeah, we would have taken this position Monday morning.
01:10:22Absolutely.
01:10:24We got on the golf cart, and it was like the first bit of peace that I'd had all day.
01:10:31It was like this quiet, serene, you know, long shadows, hear the birds chirping.
01:10:37I was like, this is really nice.
01:10:41It just got me thinking so positively about the moment.
01:10:46You know, I had a second chance.
01:10:54The first thing I thought was, all right, well, let's just hit the same shot that you just hit 10
01:10:59minutes ago.
01:11:00Make the same swing and hit the same drive.
01:11:05Sudden death up the 18th for the Masters Green Jacket.
01:11:11One of these two players is going to go home absolutely crestfallen.
01:11:25And that looks good.
01:11:27He's ripped that.
01:11:28He's absolutely ripped it.
01:11:30And that one is sailing down the fairway, completely outdriven.
01:11:35Justin Rose, so much adrenaline in that.
01:11:38Two fantastic tee shots.
01:11:41JR hit a really good drive, and I hit a good drive.
01:11:43But JR was a good, I don't know, 30 yards behind me.
01:11:47This is a fantastic opportunity for him to go ahead and put the pressure on McElroy.
01:11:59Oh, hits right next to the hole.
01:12:03Actually, a little unlucky that it got stuck right there.
01:12:06I thought it would have fed back a couple of feet.
01:12:09He hit an amazing shot right at the pin.
01:12:11And I remember when it was in the air, I was just going, oh, no.
01:12:15And then, again, I had basically the same shot as I had in regulation, but I had a flat lie.
01:12:47What a shot from McElroy.
01:12:50These two Europeans are just going at it toe-to-toe.
01:13:06And now it all comes down to who has got the guts to hold the slippery putt.
01:13:12And Rose goes first.
01:13:31The door is open again for McElroy to finish it off.
01:13:40The door is open again for McElroy to finish it off.
01:13:46This is two and a half, three feet.
01:13:49What an approach shot from McElroy.
01:13:51What a way to regather himself after the disappointment in regulation play.
01:14:17Look at the long shadows.
01:14:20It's symbolic at this moment that the journey it's taken to get here for all this history.
01:14:44The long journey is over.
01:14:48McElroy has his masterpiece.
01:15:05I just screamed at the top of my lungs twice.
01:15:12Just like this visceral release that I've never felt before in my life.
01:15:18And it's like, just that moment of, it's almost like your whole career flashes before your eyes.
01:15:27And it's like all the ups and the downs and the disappointments and the, you know, every Sunday night driving
01:15:39away from that golf club feeling disappointment.
01:15:42And, you know, it made it all worth it.
01:15:47It was Rory McElroy against Rory McElroy.
01:15:51And that has been the story of his career.
01:15:57My wedding day was a wonderful day.
01:16:00And Poppy being born was a wonderful day.
01:16:03But they were, they were, they were happy, joyful.
01:16:08This was like pure relief.
01:16:15This is done.
01:16:23When that last putt went in.
01:16:26You couldn't have stopped me crying.
01:16:29For love and money.
01:16:30Two and a half hours I cried for.
01:16:33You know, that's all the hurt over.
01:16:36It was one of the, the best things I've ever watched.
01:16:46I think a lot of the people have been on that journey with me.
01:16:51And I think to see how happy they were for me to get it done, it was like really meaningful
01:16:57and special.
01:16:59Like I never, never in my wildest dreams that I think I would get to this point.
01:17:06You know, as an eight year old, yes, I said I want to win all the majors and I want
01:17:09to join that list of people that have won the Grand Slam.
01:17:14It was probably quite naive of me to dream like that in some way, but it's what always kept me
01:17:22going.
01:17:24I want to make eight year old Rory proud and make him proud that you didn't give up.
01:17:32Never let it in my mind.
01:17:35Why not?
01:17:37Why is there only six people has ever done it?
01:17:41Must be very special.
01:17:43And I always knew my son was very, very special.
01:17:57I love you too.
01:18:00And last but certainly not least, over to my left, my family, my team.
01:18:18They've been on this journey with me the whole way through.
01:18:23They know the burden that I've carried to, you know, come here every year and try and try and try
01:18:28again.
01:18:31And the one thing I would say to my daughter Poppy that's sitting over there.
01:18:36Never give up on your dreams.
01:18:38Never, ever give up on your dreams.
01:18:46It was never going to be easy.
01:18:48It was never going to be straightforward.
01:18:50It was always going to be a little messy.
01:18:58Yeah, was Augusta my white whale?
01:19:00It probably was.
01:19:01That was the white whale of my career.
01:19:03And I'm glad that I caught it.
01:19:08I wouldn't say I'll ever tame it or I'll ever have it fully under control.
01:19:13But I think to find that persistence and to find whatever it is I needed to find within myself to
01:19:19keep coming back and to keep trying.
01:19:22That's the thing I'm proudest of.
01:19:25I'm proudest of not losing hope.
01:19:59I'm proudest of not losing hope.
