Nicklaus said he believed McIlroy would win the Masters at some point.
Jack Nicklaus criticised Rory McIlroy for a lack of concentration as the 88th Masters belatedly got under way at Augusta National.
The trio then gave a lengthy press conference before Nicklaus joined “Live from the Masters” on the Golf Channel and discussed why McIlroy had yet to win a green jacket to complete a career grand slam.“You have to concentrate 100 per cent of the time. For some reason, Rory always has a little bit of a lapse somewhere around the tournament. He’ll find a double bogey or triple bogey that sneaks in there.
“Do I think Rory will win here? Yeah. He could win this year. He could win next year. He’s just too talented not to. But then again, they were too talented not to win those, too. You just never know.”
