Rory McIlroy reflected

 Rory McIlroy reflected on the lifting of a "burden" lasting more than a decade after winning the masters in dramatic fashion at Augusta National. McIlroy's defeat of Justin Rose on the first sudden death hole means he has beencome just the sixth player in history to win the career grand slam.

McIlroy needed the Masters to complete his set of majors since winning the US PGA Championship of 2014. He has not added to his major tally, then four , between that Valhalla success and this one at the Masters.

It's very difficult McIlroy said . I think I ve carried that burden since August 2014. It's nearly 11 years. And not just about winning my next major , but the career grand slam l. Trying to join a group of five players to do it, watching a lot of my press get Green Jackets in the process. Yeah it's been difficult.

I ve tried to approach this tournament with the most positive attitude each and every time that I ve shown up and I think just the sort of cumulative experience that I ve gained coming back here each and every year, I just feel like I get a little more comfortable with the shots needed. There's talking about it and actually doing it.

"Today was difficult. I was unbelievably nervous this morning. Look , it was a heavy weight to carry and thankfully now I don't have to carry it. That grees me up and I know I'm comming back here every year, which is lovely.
