Rory McIlroy jokingly consoles Jimmy Walker after he breaks his putter in frustration during the Valero Texas Open. Walker manages to find a solution and continues his round.

Rory McIlroy jokingly told 2016 PGA Championship winner Jimmy Walker "we’ve all been there" after he snapped his putter following a seven-foot miss for a birdie in the Valero Texas Open .

Walker, 45, was five over for the tournament and was heading toward missing the cut. The rest of his round wasn't shown either, meaning viewers couldn't see how Walker handled the broken putter situation, as you're not allowed to replace it during a round if damaged in a rage. Following the Valero Texas Open is The Masters. McIlroy will look to complete a career grand slam and end his ten-year major drought with a victory at Augusta. "Discipline, not being tempted to do too much, sticking to your game plan," McIlroy said on his Masters plan. "Ben Crenshaw said a good thing to me a few years ago, he just said high lines, just keep it high, just high lines, read more into putts than you think.
