World No.1 Rory McIlroy is back to defend his Australian Open title in the city where he kick-started his -career last year but admitted Wednesday that the next US Masters is never far from his mind.
The reigning British Open and US PGA Championship titleholder could win a third straight major if he secures the green jacket at Augusta in Georgia in April and said he was thinking about it "every day."

The first order of business for -McIlroy at the Australian Golf Club this week Nike Air Max 90 Soldes , however, is retaining a title he snatched from the grasp of Australian Adam Scott on the final hole last year for his only win of 2013.

"It's definitely not a two-horse race," McIlroy said. "There's another 120 Nike Air Max 97 Soldes , 130, 140 players in the field and they'll all feel like they have a good chance to do well this week."

With the likes of Scott in the pack chasing him, though Nike Air Max 95 Soldes , he had no intention of standing still going into 2015 and that date with destiny at Augusta.
