The Northern Ireland star will make his 15th attempt at winning the single major that has eluded him at this week's Masters. He is playing at Augusta for the ninth time, and he knows that if he wins, he would join a select group of only six other men who have won all four major championships.
McIlroy acknowledges that because it has been so long since he claimed one of the big four championships, he feels as like he is pursuing his first major victory rather than his fifth. In August 2014, he played his last round in the US PGA Championship.
The 33-year-old world number two is still one of the game's most dominant players even though it feels like a lifetime ago.
