The most astute observations about elite sport do not always come from those competing. It was Rory McIlroy’s wife, Erica, who delivered a perspective on the Masters that resonated with one of the world’s finest golfers.
“She put it this; it’s like when you are a kid and you go to Disneyland,” McIlroy says. “You think it is the only place in the world. When you are at Augusta that week, it’s the only place in the world. You drink the punch, everyone is wearing their Masters gear. It’s like Disney with your mouse ears.
