Augusta, him. – Inside Latrobe, Pennsylvania, Home Office Arnold Palmer – a museum testament on one of the most prominent and more complete careers of the game is the former US president Dwight D. Eisenhower.
The Chief Commander paid off the stake, completed with a $ 20 Žarko, who made a Palmer that the Grand Slam at the Laurel Valley Golf Club would end seven times.
It was a domestic game for Palmer and at least in the mind of Eisenhower, where the “king” went to the final program and finished his career Grand Slam.
Palmer never broke a couple in Laurel Valley, finishing for 33rd And he never won the PGA. On three occasions, in ’64, ’68 and ’70, Palmer finished the racer on the PGA, but never met by Eisenhower’s prediction that, in the end, to complete the Grand Slam.
As Rory McIlroy bathed in the emotion of the decade of futility in Sunday in Augusta National, the Kraljevo Grand Slam Slam Willo was worth the audit. Like Palmer, McIlroy was fast for Stardom and finished the first three legs – US Open, PGA championship and open championship – for 25.
Also like Palmer, the most believed the Northern Irish is intended to mount golf and career Grand Slam – which stands like The game is the most exclusive club With only five members before Sunday (Jack Nickus, Tiger Woods, Gary Player, Ben Hogan and Gene Sarazen).
And like Palmer, McIlroy tried and failed to complete a decade of decades because he gathered a third leg in the Royal Liverpool.
Titles on Monday morning will inevitably underestimate that McIlroy’s achieves and for many terms will be lost on the mountain 2 possibilities no. 2. But McIlroy’s deliverance into an undisputed top of sports should not be released easily.
Before Sunday in the sun, there was almost two and a half decades since the player joined the Grand Slam Club. Visition of Tiger Woods’ 2000 outdoors to complete the wage, benchmarks that also stands as the second leg of tiger wages on the way to four consecutive great victories, seems like before the entire major victories.
How to career confessions There is no comp, not FedExCup titles, a prize player for a year or countless wins can match the end-end. For McIlroy, the Sunday triumph in Augusta National is worth so much more than the sum of their parts.
His Event Playoffs Win Over Justin Rose transforms McIlroy from the Great Talent to the General Player.
“It’s a very special moment in the history of the game and Rory just joined the very elite group,” Tommy Fleetwood said, who took the Sunday behind the August National Club.
For everything McIlroy did in his career, there was always criticism about what he didn’t have. It changed on Sunday, in the most obvious packaging, Rory McIlroy of Road.
History suggests that this moment is generation and while some could skip achievement to celebrate the Sunday’s rage theater, rose, Bryson Dachambeau, it could be another decade or more before the game can celebrate the other Grand Slam career.
“Most people at home is hard to put that in the context. Only six people, said Brad Faxon, McIlroy putting coaches and a sharp observer whose career moves from Eras from Nickuas to the forest and now Rory. “You know how difficult it is? You mean the names that are on that career Grand Slam. We had a discussion before, that it was much harder to win these main championships, because there were so many players who played against that.
“I don’t think so. I think it’s the opposite. I think the depth of talent is deeper than she ever tried to win half a dozen guys, maybe a dozen a dozen then.”
There are a lot of modern players who could join McIlroy, Tigra, Jack, et al on the Grand Slam wall. Jordan Spieth could complete his climb on the PGA championship next month, although his shape and his record in Prepeal hollows suggest otherwise.
The five-time chief winner Brooks coeka should be beaten on masters and open championships, but it has been proven to be fertile main winner if properly motivated. The same could be said for the Xander Schaufel, which gave the race last summer with his PGA and open primary victories, as Jon Rahm (won by Masters and US Open) and Scottie Scheffler (Masters).
But as McIlroy often tormented the climbing on his career Grand Slam, the way is not linear. He needed 11 attempts, of course, of course, many would argue that they were the best suitable their powerful style game to complete the ascent. According to comparison, forests, hogan and sarazen were just one attempt to wrap straw and nickus and players, and only three attempts are just needed.
Maybe as Eisenhower gambled with the palmer, the place of immortality is inevitable for loving the coex or spiet or rahm; But the capriciousness of sports is undefeated and the only guarantee is that history can be a cruel reminder of what it should be.
With the weight of the decade-long climbs, it was finally removed from the shoulders, McIlroy is original with relief, not joy. “It’s the best day of my golf life,” he said.
If the History of Career Grand Slam is any indication, and the other and others should enjoy – it could be a while before it happens again.
