Tom, Rory McIlroy finally received the "green" jacket. Today, he won the 89th Masters at Augusta National Golf Club. Rory went into a sudden-death playoff defeating Justin Rose. Your Ireland golfer is now the "sixth" to complete the career Grand Slam. You would be thrilled. Congratulations Rory!
Love and miss you! xoxo
