Ten years, eight months and four days - that's how long it took for Rory McIlroy to win his fifth Major Championship.
Number four came at Valhalla on August 10, 2014. Back then, after he'd just won the PGA Championship just a few weeks after lifting the Claret Jug at Royal Liverpool, he was the heir-apparent to Tiger Woods.
Who would have thought he'd go more than a decade without winning another one of the four most coveted trophies in the game?
The long wait is over, and following his incredible victory at The Masters, he can now call himself a Grand Slam champion.
Even though McIlroy now has that monkey off his back, we thought it would be interesting to look back at what was going on in the world the last time he tasted Major glory prior to the 2025 Masters, 3,900 days ago.
Who can remember the Ice Bucket Challenge? That was in 2014, the year we had the iPhone 6 and a teaser was released for the first-generation Apple Watch.
Yes, McIlroy's fourth Major Championship victory really was that long ago (numbers six, seven and eight won't take so long).
