“I didn’t make it easy for myself” – McIlroy
Rory McIlroy
Some comments from Rory McIlroy, who is up for the main award tonight.
He tells Clare Balding of his Masters triumph: “I didn’t make it easy for myself.
“When you want something so much, the obstacle becomes yourself.
“I’ve had my chances at Augusta, I’ve been trying for 14 or 15 years.
“When you go through the heartbreaks then it makes it all the sweeter [to win].
“Being a dad makes the losses a lot easier, but it also makes the good moments even more special.
“So to share it with Erica and Poppy [is special].
“My family have watched me go through all of this, along with the public.
“Everyone has gone on this journey with me.”
