Atlanta – Rory McLeroy The Gift Shop did not leave Agusta National as Masters Champion without a final purchase.
He said that there were 1,100 pin flags left in the Masters shop.
“And we all took 1,100,” McLero said before the Tour Championship on Tuesday, the end of a PGA tour season that has been the most memorable to date everyone because of a Sunday in April.
“It’s a lot,” he said about the flags he has signed. “But I will never be ill to sign him. I have waited 17 years to sign that flag in the middle, and I will never complain about doing it.”
Players sign the flag at all times for fans, but the golf protocol is that only the Masters Champion signs their names inside the American outline which is part of the most famous logo of golf.
It has been exceeding just four months, as McLero gave a great end to his 17 -year pursuit of winning the green jacket, defeating the bird on the first playoff hole. Justin Rose And complete the career Grand Slam.
He has not won since then, and many times he has talked about finding inspiration. But being a masters champion, it is not old. He is already planning some trips for Augusta National, a luxury bear the champion with his father with one.
If anything surprises him, it was a one -year ownership of Masters Green Jacket.
He rarely wears it.
Mcilroy said he wore it all night until he went to bed at around 3:30 pm, and then woke up and went through sensations and many others have. He saw that the jacket was wrapped on a chair, a reminder that it was not all a dream.
He wore it during a brief appearance at the Dinner of the Association of Golf Writers during the British Open. Otherwise, opportunities are rare.
“I am reluctant to wear it,” he said. “It’s not that I wear it a lot. I have a place hanging in a place in my wardrobe where I can see it every day. I always thought if I had one – if I won a Masters one day – I would never talk, and it’s not that. I have not worn it as much as I thought I would do it.”
Mcilroy said that he has planned trips with friends and some Agasta national members with whom he has become friends for years. They will need to wear their green jackets in the club, which is most likely that no one will need to rotate their arm.
He said, “I always said that there were some of my favorite times in Augusta when this was not a Masters tournament,” he said, he went there before the Masters for the practice round. “But it would be cute to go there next time and the champions will go to the locker room and put on my green jacket and felt that I am related.”
