He was nervous enough, was Chairman Ridley, presenting the green jacket.

The famous green jacket.

So Rory now, he's in a very small club of four with Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods.

Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.

See you, see you, see you, chairman.

See you, chairman.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

The green jacket.

Yeah, they brought it in in 1937 and they weren't given to the Masters champs until 1949.

There's a number of traditions around the green jacket if you want to know about them.

So when you win it, you're allowed to wear it for the year.

But then the next year, if you don't win it again, like Rory did, you have to leave the jacket there.

Jackets aren't seen in the wild, as they say.

And then it's traditional that the new champ is assisted putting on the green jacket by the current champ.

Of course, Rory is the new champ and the current champ.

So what happens there?

Well, as happened with Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods, the chairman helps the person.

Although Rory McIlroy did make a little joke that I was hoping to put it on myself, but the chairman helped me.

But it was, it's a sort of a, you know, it's a footy-duty formal occasion when he accepts the green jacket.
