S12, Ep 20 Part 1: Rory’s Redemption: A Masters for the Ages with Tom Patri & Mark Calcavecchia
Episode 20
Thursday, 17 April, 2025
On this special Masters Post Game edition of Next on the Tee, we look back on an unforgettable week at Augusta National, both from the grounds and from the booth. I kick things off by recapping the final round of the Augusta National Women’s Amateur, where Spain’s Carla Bernat Escuder fired a final round 68 to capture the title by one shot over 16-year-old American Asterisk Talley. I also spotlight standout performances by rising stars Eila Galitsky and Lottie Woad—young talents whose names we’re sure to hear more in the years to come. Then it’s on to one of the most thrilling Masters final rounds in recent memory, as Rory McIlroy overcame ghosts of past collapses, a double on 13, and a missed opportunity on 18 to ultimately defeat Justin Rose in a dramatic playoff. With that win, Rory became just the sixth player in history to complete the career Grand Slam. My guests and I walk through every twist and turn of Rory’s journey and what this victory means for his legacy. I welcome back two fan favorites to break it all down—Resident Director of Instruction Tom Patri and 17-time winner between the PGA & Champions Tours Mark Calcavecchia. Calc takes us back to his own near miss at Augusta and the shot by Sandy Lyle that denied him a green jacket. Together, we talk about the magic of this year’s tournament, from Rory immediately losing his lead on the first hole, gaining it back 2 holes later, losing it again on 13, more missed putts, throwing it away on 18 and ultimately getting the gorilla off his back. We also preview what’s ahead for the rest of the major season. Thank you for pressing play and taking the journey with us.
