What were the highlights of Rory McIlroy's Masters victory?
Welcome to the Sky Sports Golf Podcast brought to you by the all-new Quantum Driver from Callaway.
He's finally done it. Lurie's Grand Slam is complete. Champion Golfer of the Year, Scotty Scheffler.
Europe have retained the Ryder Cup in the most dramatic afternoon here in the Big Apple.
Hello and welcome to the Sky Sports Golf Podcast presented by Callaway from Augusta to reflect on another quite extraordinary Masters tournament drama from start to finish. I'm joined by Andrew Coulthart and Rich Beam. The morning after, the night before. Beamer, let's start with you. How do you reflect on just another extraordinary Masters and another drama-packed Sunday in particular?
I wish it wouldn't be so stressful. I wish that there'd be a clear-cut winner with about six holes to go. I'm tired of this stress and stuff because it's just like, you know, you have so many different players that can win it, and yet I think that inside of us, you know, like we're rooting for one guy because we've seen him fail so many times. Like, no, don't give this one away again. No, no, no. You were up by six with, you know, 36 to go, but... You know, it's just extraordinary. I like what he had to say. He says, I thought that winning the Masters first time was hard. He says, no, just winning the Masters is hard. And it is. I thought that was a very human reaction to everything that he was going through out there because it's not just winning the Masters any tournament, but I think you just, you know the history, you know what it,
He's such a historian. You'd think that he's thought of every single shot that the famous players or winners have hit. And he knows what's out there. With so many players within... three shots of the lead going into the second nine yesterday afternoon. It could have gone any different way. Yeah. But it didn't.
It didn't. And, you know, Colty, you put us through the ringer again, maybe not quite to the extent of last year, but never makes it easy, does Rory McIlroy?
No, he doesn't. I think that just echoing what Rich says and what Rory says, it's just difficult to win around there. And we all know that there's so many pitfalls waiting, lurking, just around the next corner that... you know we can never really sit back and relax in the knowledge that it's all done and dusted the example was even that tee shot there off the last you know that could end it up in the tree it could have stayed up there and uh you know we wouldn't be sitting here talking about uh necessarily rory as the winner so it's just it's just unbelievable theater but you know you know the golf course is the main
protagonist and the golfers are the participants he's an antagonist we were saying this yesterday over lunch it's the cadence of Augusta National which makes it so great doesn't it because Scotty Scheffler's already birdied 2 and 3 by the time Rory tees off and then again you get 13 or 15 which are birdie opportunities whilst the last group are coming through Amon Corner and it's always just it just naturally provides so much theatre
Yeah, 100%. You know, somebody gets off to that good start you're talking about, well, that's fine. They've not gone through Aiming Corner yet. Then they get through Aiming Corner and they've done all right. And it's like, oh, hang on a second.
How did Rory McIlroy manage pressure during the final round?
Now the whole thing has shifted. then can the leaders get through there without without dropping any shots and i okay now you've got the you know you've lost 13 still part of it well just after i'm still part of him in corner can you get through the two-par fire can you make a couple of i mean it's just right it is just 16 of course there's a hole in one just lurking sort of round there and and and 17 where the pin position is it's so easy to drop a shot there and then 18 down that little avenue my goodness yeah uh it just it just keeps you on the edge of your seat They're mowing the greens behind us, as you can see.
Hey, we're in the south, man. This is the day that everybody mows their lawns. It's all good, buddy.
It's all good.
