There's no doubt that professional golfer Rory McIlory, 35, is basking in the glory of his big Masters win yesterday, marking a highly-coveted career Grand Slam. While speaking of the historic moment, McIlroy said:
"This is my 17th time here, and I started to wonder if it would ever be my time. I think the last 10 years coming here with the burden of the Grand Slam on my shoulders and trying to achieve that, yeah, I'm sort of wondering what we're all going to talk about going into next year's Masters."
After sinking the winning putt, he fell to his knees, and fans around the world cheered.

Last week before The Masters, McIlroy appeared on The WHOOP podcast, where he revealed he's been dealing with a little-known health struggle with a heart condition, myocarditis. He explained:
"I have myocarditis, and I've had it since I was 20 years old. I wear WHOOP and monitor my heart rate variability and heart rate and obviously coming down the line, some other things that can help me. With myocarditis, if you're not hydrated enough or not getting enough magnesium your heart can have little arrhythmias that can be worrisome. To be able to keep on top of that just gives me massive peace of mind."
While McIlroy did reveal in 2018 that he was having heart issues due to an infection he caught in China, most people likely didn't know he still had anything impacting his health.
