OMG!!!! Rory McIlroy filed for divorce from his wife Erica after 7 years of marriage

Golf star Rory McIlroy filed for divorce from his wife, Erica, on Monday after seven years of marriage, court records in Florida showed.

 

The reasons for the divorce were not immediately known. McIlroy’s attorney told Fox News Digital he doesn’t comment on pending lawsuits.

McIlroy’s manager Sean O’Flaherty put out a statement later Tuesday.

“Rory McIlroy’s communications team confirmed today that a divorce has been filed. They stressed Rory’s desire to ensure this difficult time is as respectful and amicable as possible,” he said.

Rory and Erica started dating in 2015 after the PGA Tour star and tennis star Caroline Wozniacki broke off their engagement in May 2014. Rory and Erica became engaged later in 2015 and married in April 2017. They share one child together.

Erica McIlroy was a former PGA of America employee. She was seen by his side at several tournaments, including last year’s  Ryder Cup.

The Northern Irishman is fresh off of a win at the Wells Fargo Championship and is building momentum heading into the PGA Championship this weekend. He also won the Zurch Classic with Shane Lowry in a playoff back in April.

He has 26 wins on the PGA Tour, including the two in 2024. He has four major victories, with the last one coming in the 2014 PGA Championship. He has two of those titles.

 

McIlroy is also in the middle of the PGA Tour’s squabble with LIV Golf. He resigned from the PGA Tour board in November as officials tried to work on a merger agreement.
