Fifteen-time major champion Tiger Woods shared a post congratulating Rory McIlroy on joining him and four others as the only players to complete the career Grand Slam following his first Masters Tournament win on Sunday (April 13).
“Welcome to the club @McIlroyRory. Completing the grand slam at Augusta is something special. Your determination during this round, and this entire journey has shown through, and now you’re a part of history. Proud of you!” Woods wrote on his X account.
McIlroy’s win at Augusta secured his fifth career major, having previously won the U.S. Open in 2011, PGA Championship in 2012 and 2014 and the Open Championship in 2014. The Northern Ireland native joins Woods, who completed the career Grand Slam in 2000, as well as Gene Sarazen (1935), Ben Hogan (1953), Gary Player (1965) and Jack Nicklaus (1966).
Woods and McIlroy are both TaylorMade sponsored players and partnered together for the launch of TGL, an offseason golf league featuring themselves and other top PGA athletes that uses a combination of traditional golf and simulated indoor golf.
McIlroy defeated Justin Rose, who led through the first two rounds of the four-day tournament, in a sudden death playoff at Augusta National Golf Course. The 35-year-old missed a par putt, concluding regulation tied with Rose at 11-under par, before on the 18th hole before defeating Rose in a sudden death playoff by finishing at one over.
McIlroy finished with a 73 through 18 holes, which included six birdies, three bogeys and a double bogey, finishing the round at +1 for the day and and 11-under for the tournament.
