Rory McIlroy entered the 2025 Masters reading John Grisham, but looked to Disney ahead of Saturday\u2019s monster third round at Augusta National.<\/p>\n
Before shooting an 8-under 66 to claim the top spot on the Masters leaderboard at 12-under overall, the Northern Irishman \u2014 now one round away from potentially winning his first green jacket and completing a career grand slam \u2014 got his day started Saturday by watching cartoons with 4-year-old daughter Poppy, whom he shares with wife Erica Stoll.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u00a0watched a little Premier League football this morning, and then I actually watched \u2018Zootopia\u2019 with Poppy,\u201d McIlroy said of the 2016 animated Disney feature. \u201c[It\u2019s a] very, very good movie if anyone\u2019s interested.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the heels of a bogey-free 66 shot Friday in the second round, McIlroy replicated that magic the following day, opening round three with six straight 3s, including three birdies and one eagle.<\/p>\n
Although he bogeyed on holes No. 8 and No. 10, McIlroy stormed back with a birdie on No. 13 and an eagle on No. 15 to set up an epic Sunday showdown against Bryson DeChambeau, who finished Saturday at 10-under par.<\/p>\n
McIlroy and DeChambeau, 31, famously battled last summer at the U.S. Open, with the four-time major champion imploding at Pinehurst before the LIV Golf star claimed the second major title of his career.<\/p>\n
With a rematch looming, McIlroy is operating with a different mindset.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe big thing is not to make it a match, to stay in my own little world,\u201d McIlroy said. \u201cThere are some other players on that leaderboard that can make a run. I just have to do what I\u2019ve been doing and surround myself in my own cocoon.<\/p>\n
\u201c[DeChambeau] will do what he does and I just have to stay firm.\u201d<\/p>\n
When McIlroy tees off Sunday afternoon, he\u2019ll have the support of his two biggest fans.<\/p>\n
Before the tournament began, he took in the Par 3 contest with Poppy and Erica, whom he married in 2017.<\/p>\n
The couple overcame a challenging time in their marriage last year, when McIlroy filed for divorce in May before reversing course a month later.<\/p>\n
\u201cOver the past weeks, Erica and I have realized that our best future was as a family together. Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning,\u201d McIlroy said in a statement to The Guardian.<\/p>\n
McIlroy and Stoll welcomed Poppy three years after they tied the knot.<\/p>\n
He and DeChambeau will start the fourth and final round of the Masters at 2:30 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
