Rory McIlroy will need to come up with another Champions Dinner menu at Augusta National Golf Club. The World No. 2 golfer defended his green jacket at Augusta National on Sunday by fighting through some adversity to win the 2026 Masters Tournament with a score of 12-under par.
He finished a stroke ahead of Scottie Scheffler, who gave McIlroy a run for his money with a late surge on the back nine.

"No alterations needed," Nike wrote on X (formerly Twitter). "@McIlroyRory proves he is tailored for the moment, securing back-to-back jackets at Augusta. " The win for McIlroy makes him just the fourth golfer to win back-to-back green jackets at Augusta National, and the first since 2002 when Tiger Woods won back-to-back Masters.
It's the sixth career major championship for McIlroy, which is tied for the 12th most all-time. He set the Masters record for the largest 36-hole lead at six strokes, and looked to be running away with the title. However, his third round on Saturday saw him lose that lead and head into Sunday's final round tied with Cameron Young for first place on the leaderboard.
