are you serious hacker? Justin Rose will achieve more than Rory in the game? You are having a laugh. Rory has already won a major and reached the world number one. After Tiger he is the biggest draw in the game. That is despite being 8 years younger than Rose. Rose is a good player but I doubt he will get higher than that. His putting isn't good enough. Rory has had a bad few weeks but in the context of his career it is a minor blip. The likelihood is for the next twenty years he will be at the top of the game, win multiple majors and have weeks where he blows the field away.  |

Wonder where they are now? As has been said before, he thinks he is better than he is It's been a tough month for Drivel.First Adam fills his pants and then Rory trots up. Just as well he's retired. |

I wish to apologize for this nieve stupid thread
I honestly believed he had totally gone at the game around The time of the Masters. Some of the golf he has played in the last few months has been Outstanding I must say. Once again, sorry Rory and his legion of fans. |

Rory McIlroy is set to move back in with his Mum and Dad after deciding to put his luxury Co Down home on the market.
By Brian Keogh Thursday, September 20, 2012 http://www.irishgolfdesk.com Rory McIlroy has put his €2.5m Co Down home on the market.Rory McIlroy is set to move back in with his Mum and Dad after deciding to put his luxury Co Down home on the market. But the world No 1’s manager denied that the decision to sell his €2.3m Moneyreagh pad had any security implications following his controversial comments on feeling “more British than Irish” when discussing his potential allegiance for the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. Horizon Sports Management’s Conor Ridge said: “This is purely a practical and a commercial decision, there were no security issues whatsoever.” McIlroy plans to stay at his parents’ Holywood home when back in the province. However, he confessed in August last year that life in Northern Ireland had become more difficult due to his high profile. Speaking about life at home some 13 months ago and his intention to rejoin the PGA Tour, McIlroy said: “It is tough and definitely a lot tougher than it was three months ago. “There have been people driving up the driveway at home, which isn’t very nice, but as I said the other day, it is something I am just going to have to deal with. “It has a little bit to do with my decision to base myself in America next year. I have had security guards at my house every night since I won the US Open, patrolling around the area. It is something that I just had to put in place, I’m afraid. Rory McIlroy’s personal practice range. Yours for £2m.“It’s tough but it is just the world we live in unfortunately. If you’re in the position we’re in, you’re so public.” However, McIlroy revealed yesterday that it was his accountant’s advice and not security concerns that has prompted him to sell his 14-acre estate near Moneyreagh in County Down. Rarely at home now due to his US Tour commitments, McIlroy said: “Unfortunately, I have had to make the difficult decision to sell my house in Moneyreagh. It has been an extremely difficult decision, as I have invested so much both financially and emotionally in the house and practice facilities there. “However, with my global tournament schedule and ever-increasing schedule in the US, I am now only making it back home to Northern Ireland for a couple of weeks here and there during the summer months and at Christmas time.” The five-bedroom house, which boasts a state of the art practice range, an all-weather tennis court/five-a-side football court and a freshwater pond, is expected to sell for over (€2.5m euro) £2m. McIlroy is believed to have bought the house for the then £2m asking price more than three years ago, when he was based mainly on the European Tour. Admitting that it’s tough to sell up, he added: “I have had to think long and hard about this and it has been a gut-wrenching decision, but the reality is that it is just not practical for me to own a property like this anymore when I rarely get to use it. My main priority when I get home nowadays is spending time with my friends and family. “Hanging out with my parents and enjoying my Mum’s home cooking is what I love most about being home in Northern Ireland, so in a funny way, it will suit me to stay with Mum and Dad when I am home in future!” McIlroy, 23, was celebrating again last week when he won the BMW Championship in Indiana, his third US Tour victory in four outings and last night teed it up in the Tour Championship in Atlanta hoping for a win that would land him the $10m FedEx Cup bonus. A close friend said: “The facts speak for themselves. Rory is on the road almost 50 weeks of the year and he has not had any time to enjoy the house and the cost of its upkeep and maintenance for such little use are ridiculous. “His home will always be Northern Ireland and he will return home as much as possible.” McIlroy currently rents a luxury property in swish West Palm Beach in Florida but it is not expected to buy a US base just yet. |

Wonder how many interested buyers will appear for Rorys pad . 10 acres plus of well manicured and maintained golf course would not be on the wish list for many in this part of the world . Those of us who are golfers have a plentiful supply of golf courses equal to anywhere in the world if you put about a one hour time frame on travel from Rorys house . A grand a year sub approx for any of them . Only one of them is hard to get into and there are easier ways to play the course legitimately than getting out the prayer mat .
Can think of someone buying it and adapting the facility , but there would not be a huge footfall from passing trade . Most of us here would not need an on your door practice facility , nice to have , but maintenance costs etc plus security big factors . Shows you how fast things move nowadays , 2 years ago Rory was getting 10 out of 10 for having the vision to set up the property , now its become virtually obsolete in his life terms . |

http://www.golfcourier.com/news/story/24740/jumeirah-group-not-renewing-rory-mcilroy-sponsorship.html
FROM THE CBS SPORTS.COM WEBSITE DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - Jumeirah Group has announced that it is not renewing its five-year sponsorship deal with top-ranked Rory McIlroy amid expectations that the Northern Ireland golf star will sign with Nike next week. The global luxury hotel company based in the United Arab Emirates signed a five-year deal with McIlroy when he was 18 and was one of his first corporate sponsors. The announcement allows McIlroy to pursue a lucrative endorsement contract, with strong indications that he will sign with Nike in a deal that one industry observer estimated at $20 million a year. That would give Nike golf's two biggest stars in McIlroy and Tiger Woods, who has been with the swoosh since he turned pro in 1996. |

He is a decent golfer who on his day can look majestic. Just, way overrated. |
