The Northern Irish player achieved another victory at the Masters this Sunday, taking another significant step forward in the main historical rankings of his sport. McIlroy, who completed the Grand Slam at this same tournament last year, is already among the best in all the major statistics for accumulated successes in his discipline.

Having already been one of the six players to win all four majors (after Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods), he is now also a legend of the most iconic of them all. Only Jack Nicklaus (1965 and 1966), Nick Faldo (1989 and 1990), and Tiger Woods (2001 and 2002) had successfully defended the coveted Green Jacket. McIlroy is, therefore, the fourth man to achieve this feat.
