• Northern Irishman vows not to rest on laurels after his sixth major win

• Player ‘not as emotional’ as last year but revels in ‘amazing’ win

McIlroy prevailed at Augusta National by a shot over Scottie Scheffler, meaning the Northern Irishman becomes just the fourth golfer in history to win the tournament back-to-back. While McIlroy will cherish his win, he has no plans to rest on his laurels.
