Update:

Where do we begin? Rory’s career grand slam? US Open rematch? Europe vs USA? LIV vs PGA? This final pairing has it all. Two different personalities, different styles and approaches and one thing in common: DeChambeau and McIlroy can send bombs. Watching these two big hitters will be intense on Sunday afternoon at Augusta National, where it will all come down to putting and chipping.

Social media reactions

Golf analysts, journalists, reporters and fans, especially the patrons, voiced their opinions on Instagram, X and other digital platforms:

Golf influencer and enthusiast Paige Spiranac let us know what she thought of the last pairing on Sunday:

One fan thinks the Masters champions will be cheering for Rory to avoid disaster at next year’s Masters Champions’ dinner:

So true:

Super 70s sports said what many of us are thinking. Bryson is great, but it would be heartbreaking if Rory lost again:

Nobody, not even DeChambeau fans want to see this scene at Augusta National:

You can’t help but laugh at this one. It’s funny because it’s true:

Couldn’t leave out the Shooter McGavin reference from Happy Gilmore:

This is definitely in the minds of both. It just seems that DeChambeau has a psychological advantage:

Could be awkward for Billy Horschel if he’s on the Ryder Cup team with Bryson in September:

Saving this one for last. It’s going to be entertaining for us golf fans, but a battle for Rory and Bryson:
