“He came back from what could’ve been a tragedy”

After Rory McIlroy’s victory at the Masters, which will be talked about for years ahead of us, many important figures in the world of golf and other sports reacted to his victory. The US president, Donald Trump, who is also an important figure in the world of golf, congratulated Rory McIlroy on his victory, impressed by his courage. 

Trump is a person who has been playing golf for years, enjoying his free time playing golf, but also following this sport. 

The US president is aware of the pressure of playing at the Masters, especially when the public expects you to make a big step year after year. 

Rory McIlroy, on the other hand, knew how to respond in the right way this year, reaching the throne.

‘I have to congratulate Rory,’ Trump said, as quoted by Daily Mail. 

‘That took tremendous courage. He was having a hard time, but it showed great guts and stamina and courage. 

People have no idea how tough that is. He came back. It’s better for him that it happened that way because that showed real courage to have come back from what could’ve been a tragedy – it was amazing.’ 

Donald Trump on Justin Rose

The US leader did not forget to mention Justin Rose, who looked really impressive. 

It seemed that seasoned golfer might spoil Rory’s plans. 

However, in the dramatic ending, McIlroy managed to keep a cool head and finish the story in style. 

Rose also showed collegiality and respect toward Rory, hugging him right after the final shot and congratulating him. 

Trump emphasized the pressure of such tournaments, but McIlroy showed this year that he could win many more Majors in the years ahead.

‘Justin Rose was great.

Look, they’re great athletes under tremendous pressure. But unless you’re a golfer, you don’t understand that hundredth of an inch makes a difference between a great shot and a horrible shot.’- he concluded.
