And Rickie is gonna have to make this eagle.

I honestly think Rickie is out of it unless he shoots 6 or 7 under on the back and makes a couple eagles

He would need help, that's for sure. Looking less and less likely with how effective Rory has been off the tee.

In my bag:

Driver: Titleist TSi3 | 15º 3-Wood: Ping G410 | 17º 2-Hybrid: Ping G410 | 19º 3-Iron: TaylorMade GAPR Lo |4-PW Irons: Nike VR Pro Combo | 54º SW, 60º LW: Titleist Vokey SM8 | Putter: Odyssey Toulon Las Vegas H7

Huh. Rickie has some sort of graphite-shafted long iron. Is that a Cobra hybrid/driving iron thing or just a regular iron?

I have learned that saying JACKASS right before McIlroy swings does NOT help. Unbelievable I know.

Wow, I thought Sergio made that putt. That would have gone a long way.

It's an Amp Forged 3-iron with a graphite Matrix Ozik hM2 X-stiff shaft

Rory's in the deep stuff, so that's nice.

Knowing Rory's luck, he'll get a good lie and knock it to 12 feet.

Mistake by McIlroy on the par 3. Got a little impatient on the tee for the first time, as he has been waiting on every shot since the 10th hole yesterday. Tough situation for a guy who likes to play at a good pace.

    • Day 55: 2026.03.04 Backswing work, trying to pull everything together, slowly at first.
    • Day 519 - 2026-03-04 Got some work in before lessons. Mostly downswing. My backswing is good.
    • Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer?? I got scammed one time on FBM so I don’t trust it.
    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
