Rory McIlroy Masters any fear of Augusta
McIlroy confessed to shedding a tear in private as the enormity of blowing a four-shot lead and closing with an 80 hit him. But, from the despair of his loss, he has risen to greater heights and erased any doubts about his mental toughness as he prepares to return to Augusta this week for the 2012 Masters which begins on Thursday.
“Last year’s Masters was definitely a defining moment for me,” he said. “It could have been a crossroads in my career. I could have done what I did on Sunday at Augusta and let it affect me and let it get to me, and maybe go into a slump, or get down or feel sorry for myself.”
