Summary
Rory McIlroy won the Masters, becoming the fourth golfer to win back-to-back green jackets. He finished at 12-under par at Augusta National Golf Club. Tiger Woods was the last to accomplish the feat in 2001 and 2002. McIlroy bounced back from a dismal Saturday round to fend off rallies from Scottie Scheffler and Justin Rose. He is the first Northern Irishman to win the Masters. The Associated Press contributed to this report.

The game followed a familiar script.
McIlroy’s Saturday struggles were just a warm-up for his Sunday comeback.
He showed up when it mattered, just like Tiger did back in the day.
The margin for error was slim, but McIlroy made it look easy.
And now he’s got the green jacket to prove it, just like the greats before him.
