People can’t stop talking about Rory crying after his Masters win because it was just so real and unexpected. Like, he’s usually pretty chill even when he wins, but that time he fell down on the 18th green and cried in front of everyone. He said it was like all the pressure he’d been carrying for years just finally burst out all at once. I think that’s what made the moment stick with people, since you don’t always see pro athletes let go like that.

Rory also said he avoids watching that moment on replay because it’s super emotional for him. I can relate to that—sometimes you just want to keep a memory in your own head rather than see how it looked on TV. The dude’s been trying to win the Masters for so long, so when he finally did it, you could tell it meant way more than just another tournament. Everybody loves to see real emotions, especially when someone’s dream finally comes true.
