World number one Scottie Scheffler says it was "really cool" to watch Rory McIlroy complete the career grand slam at close quarters.
By tradition Scheffler, as the outgoing champion, was the man to present McIlroy with his coveted green jacket in the Butler Cabin at Augusta National.
Scheffler, speaking at a press conference ahead of this week's RBC Heritage tournament at Harbour Town, said: "It was cool to be able to see Rory get the job done.
"Definitely, from the outside, it looked a lot more like relief than anything. Rory has accomplished everything in the game of golf, and that was really the last thing for him to accomplish.
"The guy has won the FedEx Cup, The Players (Championship), all four majors. Maybe the only other thing would be the Olympics, what he would want to win.
"So for him, it was really cool for me to be there in that moment. He’s a good friend of mine. To be able to congratulate him and just see the joy on him and his family was really cool."
