Ricky Cobb nails a fascinating comparison: Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus brought an aura of inevitability when they climbed the leaderboard at Augusta—but Rory McIlroy? He feels different. More human. More like Phil Mickelson.
You can feel the pressure with Rory in those Masters moments—the weight of the career Grand Slam, the expectations, the tension. It’s what made Phil so compelling for years… and it’s what makes Rory one of the most emotionally gripping players to watch at Augusta.
Is Rory destined to break through, or does that pressure define his Masters story?
