Here's a summary of the article about Rory McIlroy:
**The Disappointing Finish**
In 2011, Rory McIlroy was leading the Masters tournament with nine holes to go but "unraveled" and ultimately finished in fourth place. This disappointing finish still haunts him, despite winning several major championships since then.
**A Lesson Learned**
McIlroy believes that his collapse at Augusta National taught him a valuable lesson about mental toughness and how to handle pressure situations. He has spoken publicly about the importance of learning from mistakes and using them as an opportunity for growth.
**The Quest for the Green Jacket**
Despite seven top-10 finishes in his past 10 Masters outings, McIlroy remains one major championship shy of completing golf's career grand slam. He still hopes to win The Masters in his career, which would make him only the fifth golfer since 1934 to achieve this feat.
**A Year in Review**
In recent years, McIlroy has shown that he can still compete at a high level, particularly with his strong finishes at major championships. His performance last year was marked by a runner-up finish, which was his best result at Augusta National since 2011.
**The Future Ahead**
At the age of 33, time is still on McIlroy's side. He has extended his major drought to eight years but featured arguably his best golf since that golden season in 2014. As he prepares for his 15th appearance at Augusta National this week, a green jacket remains an elusive missing item from his wardrobe.
**A Career Grand Slam**
Completing golf's career grand slam is the ultimate goal for many professional golfers. McIlroy has already won four major championships but still lacks The Masters to achieve this milestone. Will he finally get his hands on that coveted green jacket? Only time will tell.
