McIlroy’s dramatic playoff win over Justin Rose at Augusta ended one of golf’s longest storylines. For nearly two decades, he had chased the final piece of the puzzle to complete the career Grand Slam. One birdie putt sealed it, and suddenly he joined the exclusive group of Masters champions.

Rory McIlroy never gets tired of signing a Masters pin flag as the champion, and there's been a lot of that to do.

Rory on Masters flags: "They had 1,100 extra left in the merchandise facility at the end of the week, and we took all 1,100."

The 2025 PGA Tour season has yet to conclude, but that has not stopped some from looking to next year's schedule. After the PGA Tour released the playing calendar for the 2026 season on Tuesday, Rory McIlroy was asked about the cadence of the tournaments and the addition of another signature event to the campaign.

Trump National Doral is back on the PGA Tour schedule next year as a signature event that is sure to test how often the top golfers want to play during an extraordinary spring of five big tournaments in a six-week stretch.
