Overview17 YEARS. 17 ATTEMPTS. ONE UNFORGETTABLE SUNDAY.On April 13, 2025, Rory McIlroy stood over a four-foot putt with history watching. Miss it, and the doubters were right. Make it, and join Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, and golf's immortals. The ball dropped. His knees buckled. The wait was finally over. He had everything except the one thing that mattered most.Four major championships by age 25. Rory McIlroy was supposed to dominate golf for decades. Then came the 2011 Masters-a four-shot lead, a final-round 80, and a collapse that would haunt him for fourteen years. What followed was the longest drought in modern golf history. While the world moved on, Rory kept returning to Augusta National. Year after year. Failure after failure. The green jacket-the only missing piece of the career Grand Slam-seemed destined to elude him forever. But champions aren't made when everything goes right.
