McIlroy Chokes at the Masters

Rory McIlroy's quest for back-to-back Masters titles hit a major obstacle as he struggled with his driving and iron play, finishing with a one-over-par 73.

His once-commanding advantage evaporated as Cameron Young surged up the leaderboard with a brilliant 65.

The chasing pack has also closed in, with Shane Lowry and Scottie Scheffler remaining in contention after strong performances.

McIlroy must now recalibrate his state of mind to fend off a crowded field of eight players within four shots of the lead.
