Rory McIlroy wouldn't speak to playing partner Bryson DeChambeau during the final round Sunday at the Masters, and it turns out that was all part of his strategy.

Rory McIlroy is now part of the most elite club in golf with the career Grand Slam. The Masters made his dreams come true and gave him the final piece of the slam.
