Rory McIlroy has joined more elite company at the Masters.
He pulled away with a pair of birdies around Amen Corner and, as usual, saved a little drama for the end before taking his place in Augusta National history as only the fourth back-to-back champion.

McIlroy seized control for good with a bold shot over Rae's Creek to 7 feet for birdie on the par-3 12th.
Then he blistered a 350-yard drive on the par-5 13th that set up another birdie.
There were a few dicey moments, but he shot a 1-under 71 to for a one-shot victory to join Jack Nicklaus, Nick Faldo and Tiger Woods as repeat winners.
