Rory McIlroy Repeats as Masters Champion

McIlroy's victory cements his place among the all-time greats of the sport as he continues his dominant run at the year's first major.

The tournament was also marked by controversy involving Sergio Garcia, who issued a grovelling apology after a petulant meltdown on the second tee.

Despite accusations of an unfair advantage due to his intensive preparation at the course, McIlroy's mental strength and short game proved decisive.

The win has sparked a debate over whether McIlroy is now the greatest-ever sportsperson from the United Kingdom.
