Congrats on back-to-back Masters, Rory!

Manchester United supporter Rory McIlroy made history on Sunday night by winning The Masters for a second successive year.

The lifelong Red is only the fourth man in history to win the major back-to-back, shooting a final-day 71 to finish on 12 under, one stroke clear of world number one Scottie Scheffler.

McIlroy joins Jack Nicklaus, Sir Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods as players to win consecutive editions of The Masters, also becoming the 15th man in history to claim six or more major titles.

 

“I can't believe I waited 17 years to get one Green Jacket and now I get two in a row,” said McIlroy. “All my perseverance at this golf course over the years has started to pay off.”

Congratulations on your phenomenal achievement, Rory.

Everybody at Manchester United is proud of you. We look forward to seeing you back at Old Trafford soon. 

REDS ON THE GREEN

Last summer, we set up a putting challenge for the players at pitchside.

Dubbed the ‘Old Trafford Open’, the Reds had 10 shots each to score as many points as they could – and things quickly became competitive.

With a mixture of golf enthusiasts like Mason Mount competing against golf newbies likes Casemiro, the action was… varied!

Check it out in the video below.
