Rory McIlroy suffered in the main tournaments in the 10 bargains before his stunning master triumph on Sunday modified his career Grand Slam on Sunday – and immediately raised the question of what would he achieve?
Dame Laura Davies said in the immediate consequence of McILroy’s national victory of August: “Now he could win five or six other owners, because he will never feel pressure and try to get Grand Slam.”
McIlroy himself spoke of the burden he felt during his mainstream lane, and the relief appeared one of the predominant emotions that went through his celebrations at the 18th. Greens after his victory over Justin Rose.
“The monkey is outside the back,” Sky Sports’ Andrew Coltart said. “I think we will start seeing Rory McILroy, which we always knew she was, but she has been trying to come out over the past 11 years.”

So what could McIlroy continue? And is it a realistic prospect for him to watch the Grand Slam in his career by winning the calendar year in 2025?
Next month, the PGA Championship is held in Quail Hollow, a course that won four times earlier, on the PGA Tour, while the 2025 Open Championship this summer returns to Royal Portrush and Northern Ireland – McILroy will be fantastic to win.
“You can’t win all four big a year unless you won the first one,” McIlroy said Sky Sports.
“Another major is in Quail Hollow, somewhere I loved most of my career, there is an open (Royal) Portrush, Ryder Cup in Bethpage.
“There is a lot of golf left this year. I got to a great start, of course, and I can’t wait to continue.”

Former Captain Ryder Cup Paul McGinley is another who lent his back to 35 -year -old McILroy and said, “I don’t think he won Major this year”.
“I think it’s different Rory, Rory’s development,” McGinley said at Golf channel.
“There’s a mental resistance that might not be there. He has a strategy, a spear deep and can win when he’s not right about it. He’s on the way to win more.
“Now that he climbed on Everest, he loses a little? If you achieve something you wanted so much, you will soften a little, but I don’t think so. I think it will continue.
“I said that if he wins one major, he will win three or four. I don’t think he won a big company this year. He has some big chances to add to it.”

Such became a expectation surrounding one of the modern golf giants that the thinking of the unthinkable Grand Slam of the same period was thrown into the thinking. Is it dare to dream of such performance?
