The victory of Rory Mcilroy Masters on Sunday was years of creation, but one of the stories that appeared in the headlines during the commander was that he gave the silent treatment to his interpretation partner, Bryson Denhambeau, for the final round.
Now there is a definitive reason why Mcilroy did not talk to Deschambeau on Sunday, everything was part of a winning strategy.
The sports psychologist of Mcilroy, Bob Rotella, told the BBC on Tuesday that silence had nothing to do with Deschambeau and it really was about winning the green jacket that has long been.
“That had nothing to do with Bryson,” Rotella told The Outlet. “That was just the game plan throughout the week and we wanted to lose ourselves in it.
“We didn’t want to pay attention to what someone else was scoring, shooting, or balancing or how far they were hitting it. We just wanted Rory to play his game.”
“The point is that if you think you are going to win, just play your game and assume that if you do it anywhere in the way you are capable, then you will finish number one.”
Deshambeau revealed that Mcilroy did not talk to him lasting the final round on Sunday after Mcilroy first won on Augusta National.
“Hey, talk to me all day,” Dchambeau said. “He would like to talk to me. It was like … only centered on beer, I suppose. It’s not me, he thought.”
Dechambeau finished 7-go, drawing for the fifth.
Mcilroy, meanwhile, had a round of the Russian mountain that arrived at a playoff with Justin Rose, with Mcilroy demanding little victory to take his Grand Slam of PGA Tour.
Rotella previously told Mark Cannizzaro of the post that Masters gain has the potential to boost Mcilroy, five times important winner, even more success.
“I would be surprised to see Rory do some bigger things after this week,” Rotella told the post. [Masters] Win was liberating in that sense and takes pressure. “
