Rory McIlroy divorce rumors: How golfer and wife, Erica Stoll, saved marriage before 2024 U.S. Open

Rory McIlroy has endured plenty of highs and lows during his 2024 PGA Tour campaign, but he may hit two of his highest moments in succession at the U.S. Open.

McIlroy is in the running to win the event, as he and Bryson DeChambeau are battling on the back-nine Sunday to win the event. A McIlroy victory would snap a decade-long major drought for the 35-year-old golfer.

Win or lose, McIlroy scored another important win ahead of the U.S. Open. He and his wife of seven years reconciled in a move that is expected to save their marriage.

Here’s what to know about the divorce rumors surrounding McIlroy and how he quashed them ahead of the 2024 U.S. Open.

McIlroy filed for a divorce from his wife Erica in May of 2024, but the couple had a change of heart and reconciled, as he revealed on the eve of the 2024 U.S. Open in June.

“Over the past weeks, Erica and I have realized that our best future was as a family together,” McIlroy told The Guardian. “Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.”

How exactly did McIlroy and Stoll address those differences? The two “held talks each weekend for the last four weeks, which were the key to saving their marriage,” per the Belfast Telegram.

McIlroy and Stoll have been married for seven years. The couple has one child together — 3-year-old Poppy, who has appeared at PGA Tour events alongside her parents in recent years.

McIlroy is married to Erica Stoll. The two met while Stoll was working for PGA of America, which was one of her dream jobs coming out of college.

“The way PGA employees present themselves is so admirable and professional. That’s the kind of job I want, and it’s doing something I love,” she told the Democrat and Chronicle in 2008.

Stoll and McIlroy first met in 2012 at the Ryder Cup. Stoll was working as a PGA transport official and helped arrange McIlroy a police escort to the course after he accidentally overslept, per People. The two were first friends, as McIlroy was dating tennis star Carolina Wozniacki when he first met Stoll, but they eventually started dating after McIlroy and Wozniacki broke off their engagement.

The McIlroys were married in 2017 and have been together since. Despite Rory’s high profile, Erica has attempted to stay out of the spotlight, as McIlroy detailed in a 2015 interview with the Irish Independent.

“Erica has been around me quite a lot at tournaments but we have really just tried to keep it low-key. She is a very low-key person, not the kind to broadcast stuff, but that side of my life is really good just now. We are excited, our parents are excited so it is a really happy time,” he told the outlet.
