WATCH: Rory McIlroy 2026 Masters green jacket ceremony
· Yahoo Sports
For a second straight year, Rory McIlroy is a Masters champion. And for a second straight year, the six-time major winner was presented the green jacket. It just didn't go quite the way he imagined, after joking last year that he couldn't wait to come back and present himself the jacket.
"I wasn't quite correct, because the chairman did it," McIlroy joked Sunday. "But I did want to come back here and prove last year wasn't a fluke." Mission accomplished.

Before you ask, no, McIlroy didn't get a new green jacket. Multi-time winners at Augusta keep their original jacket unless their size changes. Which obviously wasn't the case for McIlroy, who became just the fourth player ever to win in back-to-back years and first since Tiger Woods in 2001-02.
Good stuff.
