**The 2011 Masters Nightmare**
Rory McIlroy's performance at the 2011 Masters is still etched in his memory. He was leading the tournament with nine holes to go, but he unraveled and ultimately finished third.
"I was leading this golf tournament with nine holes to go, and I just unraveled... It's a Sunday at a major, what it can do," McIlroy said in an interview.
McIlroy has since spoken about how that experience taught him valuable lessons. "I didn't handle it particularly well today obviously, but it was a character-building day... I'll come out stronger for it."
**The Missing Piece: A Green Jacket**
Despite seven top-10 finishes at the Masters in his past 10 outings, McIlroy still lacks a green jacket to complete his collection. He is one of only five golfers in modern era history to have completed the career Grand Slam without winning The Masters.
"Unthinkable" that he would not win The Masters in his career, McIlroy has said. But at 33 years old, time is still on his side.
**A Glimmer of Hope**
McIlroy's best finish at Augusta last year was a runner-up to Scottie Scheffler, but arguably his performance in 2011 remains the closest he has ever been to victory. He shot a 64 in the final round, but it wasn't enough to catch up.
Time is still on McIlroy's side, and he showed glimpses of his old form last year at Augusta. But will he finally break through and win The Masters?
**The Legacy of '11**
McIlroy's performance at the 2011 Masters has become a defining moment in his career. It marked the beginning of a golden era for McIlroy, during which he won three majors by the age of 25.
In an interview with the BBC, McIlroy dubbed that performance "the most important day" of his career. And it's hard to argue with that assessment.
**The Search Continues**
At 33 years old, McIlroy is still on a mission to win The Masters and complete his collection. He may not have won in '11, but he's getting closer. Only time will tell if this year will be the one.
