Rory McIlroy Wins 2025 Masters, Completes Grand Slam

Rory McIlroy's victory at the 2025 Masters marked a significant milestone, making him the first European to complete a career Grand Slam, celebrated with the Green Jacket ceremony at the Butler Cabin. His win over Justin Rose in a dramatic playoff was the result of a focused mental strategy advised by sports psychologist Dr. Bob Rotella. Despite his success, Paige Spiranac, a golf influencer, reportedly earns more per Instagram post than McIlroy, highlighting social media's financial influence in sports. In Northern Ireland, McIlroy's win is celebrated with proposals for local tributes. Scottie Scheffler, who presented McIlroy the Green Jacket, faced criticism for his hasty exit during the ceremony, explaining it was to respect McIlroy's emotional moment.
