Rory McIlroy has set his sights on even bigger goals after winning the Masters for the second year in a row. The Northern Irish golfer said he will not slow down after claiming his sixth major title at Augusta National. McIlroy beat world number one Scottie Scheffler by one shot in a tense final round. With this win, he became only the fourth player in history to win back-to-back Masters titles. He said the victory means a lot, but it is not the end of his journey. He plans to keep pushing himself in future tournaments. “I don’t want to put a number on it,” McIlroy said. “I still have things I want to achieve.” He added that he feels strong in both body and game. He also said he wants to enjoy the moment before returning to competition. McIlroy won his first Masters last year, completing a career grand slam. This year, he said the feeling was different but still special. He said he was less emotional than before but still deeply happy. He also said winning two in a row feels “amazing.” The 2026 Masters was not easy for him. His game was inconsistent across four rounds. He hit just over half of his fairways and missed many greens. At one point, he lost a large lead during the final round. Pressure built as the final holes approached. On the last tee, McIlroy faced a difficult moment. His drive went off course into trees, creating tension. He said that moment was the most stressful part of the tournament. He did not know where his ball had landed. Despite the pressure, he managed to recover and finish strongly. That helped secure the one-shot win. McIlroy said that winning the Masters is always hard. He said he once thought it was easier in his early career when he won by large margins. Now he understands how difficult every victory can be at this level. His parents, Rosie and Gerry, were present at Augusta this year. They missed his win last year, which made this moment more special for him. McIlroy said he thought about them during the game. He said their support has always been important in his career. He plans to celebrate the win with his family before taking a short break from golf. He said he may have a “sore head” the next day after celebrating. Experts say McIlroy’s win shows his strong mental focus under pressure. Many believe he is now in one of the best phases of his career. Golf analysts also noted that Augusta remains one of the toughest courses in the world. Winning there in back-to-back years is very rare. McIlroy said he will continue to set new targets. He did not reveal specific goals but hinted at more major wins. He said he still enjoys the game and wants to keep improving. The win also strengthens his place among golf’s great players. With six major titles, he is now among the sport’s elite. Fans around the world celebrated the victory. Many praised his resilience during the final round. The victory also adds pressure on rivals like Scheffler, who pushed him closely until the end. McIlroy said golf involves more losses than wins. That is why every victory feels special. He said he will celebrate this success fully before turning focus to future events. McIlroy said he will return to training after a short break. He plans to focus on staying consistent in major tournaments. Coaches say his short game helped him win under pressure. Augusta National is known for fast greens and tough holes. Many fans called this one of his best performances. Golf history now places him among modern great champions. He said motivation is not a problem for him now. He wants to keep competing at the highest level for years. He also thanked his team for steady support throughout the season.
