The Masters is set to tee-off on Thursday and there's plenty of storylines surrounding this year's edition of the event.

Once again, one of the top stories is Rory McIlroy, who has been chasing a Green Jacket his entire career. He had already one each of the other three majors by 2014, and has been trying to complete the career grand slam ever since.

Only five golfers in the history of the game have completed the modern career grand slam. Those five golfers are Gene Sarazen, Gary Player, Ben Hogan, Tiger Woods, and Jack Nicklaus. The latter two won each major at least three times.
