The Down native also came in for huge praise from former Republic of Ireland soccer star Roy Keane, who described McIlroy as "one of the very best".
“I am delighted for Rory. He is absolutely brilliant, one of the very best. I watched all of it. The mentality he has is amazing", Keane said. Find out more on this report from Nova here.
Elsewhere, Rory McIlroy was also recently honoured at the Laureus World Sports Awards, where he won the World Comeback of the Year award for his achievements in 2025.
"There are certain moments in your career that stay with you, and winning the Masters is one I'll carry with me forever. To then have a year like that recognised by Laureus is very special," McIlroy said in a video message.
"Completing the career Grand Slam was incredibly emotional. It's something I've been chasing for a long time, and it probably means more because of everything that came before it - the near misses, the setbacks, and the questions along the way".
