World No.2 golfer Rory McIlroy has filed for divorce from his wife Erica Stoll, just days out from the PGA Championship. The four-time major championship winner submitted a “petition for dissolution of marriage” on Tuesday , a day after winning the Wells Fargo Championship for the fourth time at Quail Hollow. Stoll and McIlroy were married in 2017 and have one child together, three-year-old Poppy McIlroy. McIlroy’s manager Sean O’Flaherty confirmed the pair were heading their separate ways.
The Northern Irishman had been engaged to former tennis world No.1 Caroline Wozniacki until their split in 2014. McIlroy credits Stoll, who was working for the PGA of America when they met 12 years ago, with helping him get a police escort to the course after getting his tee time for the Sunday singles mixed up. No specific reason for the divorce has been made public, but the documents said their married was “irretrievably broken”.
