Despite past challenges at Augusta, McIlroy showed resilience, maintaining momentum towards a potential showdown with defending champion Scottie Scheffler.

Rory McIlroy began his third round at the Masters with impressive flair, moving ahead of overnight leader Justin Rose after an eagle on the second hole. McIlroy aims to secure a career Grand Slam this weekend under ideal conditions at Augusta National.
