Rory McIlroy’s four-year-old daughter amazed the Augusta audience by showcasing her skills with a spectacular putt on the eve of the 89th Masters.
Poppy received guidance from her dad, who aims to secure the Masters title to achieve a career grand slam, as she successfully made a long birdie putt on the final hole.
“Yeah, very cool,” McIlroy remarked when reflecting on that moment.
“It’s just such a fun afternoon. Spending time out there with Shane (Lowry) and Tommy (Fleetwood) and their families, we share a close bond, so having the kids out there enjoying themselves is the most important thing.
