Rory Mcilroy invaded his masters Sunday with his first green jacket victory. It was a historic victory for many reasons, one of them was that it was Mcilroy’s first major eternal friend And Caddy Harry Diamond in the bag. Sunday evening, Mcilroy received emotions by talking about Diamond’s essential role in his career and life, and he also emphasized his advice that his cadad gave him in an important moment that helped him win.

For a brief summary of Mcilroy’s comments about the diamond after winning his masters, keep reading.
Rory protects Caddy after winning Masters
Understandably, Mcilroy was often thrilled after his long -awaited and dramatic victory on Sunday evening.
For Rory Mcilroy’s elastic man, masters win would say something extra
But during his press conference after winning at the Master’s Media Center, it was the theme of his caddy who brought him into tears.
“I’ve known Harry (Diamond) since I was seven. I met him at Green Green in Holywood Golf Club. We had so many good times together,” Mcilroy said, with tears growing up in his eyes, “he has been a big brother for me all my way.”
Mcilroy then explained that this victory along with Diamond was more important given the criticism that Diamond has faced for its relative inexperience as a prod, and that Mcilroy has faced to climb a friend over a looper tour.
“To be able to share this with him, after all the close calls we have had, all the mutes he had to get from people who know nothing about the game, yes, this is as his own as it is,” Mcilroy said.
He went on, “(Diamond) is a massive part of what I do, and I couldn’t think of anyone better to share with him than he did.”
Look at the moment below.
Mcilroy Caddy gives Master’s winning tips
It turns out that Diamond played a very specific and essential role at a great moment of Sunday masters, one that may have led to Mcilroy’s victory.
When Mcilroy lost a five-legged kick to win in the 18th hole on Sunday evening, little could predict the perfect performance he would give in the same hole in the play off.
Such a devastating miss, following the previous previous mini-columns during the round, would mean the end for most players.
And Mcilroy was probably retreating at the moment. That is to say, while Diamond offered some tips before leaving for play off.
“After scoring, Harry and I was walking in the Golf cart to return us to the 18th, and he said to me,” Well, Paul, we would have received this Monday morning, “” Mcilroy discovered Sunday night. “I’m like,” Yes, we would absolutely have. “”
And that simple message re-concentrated Rory’s mind on the task in question, allowing him to withdraw the moments of victory later.
“This was an easy reset. He essentially told me. Look, you would have given your right arm to be on a play -off at the beginning of the week,” Mcilroy added, “so that kind of a little riframe for me.”
