Nearly one month after Rory McIlroy filed for divorce from Erica Stoll, the four-time major champion confirmed that he's reconciled with his wife of seven years after the pair "resolved our differences."
An attorney representing McIlroy filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss the divorce documents on Tuesday, The Guardian reported. The announcement comes days before the start of the 2024 U.S. Open, an event McIlroy last won in 2011.
"There have been rumors about my personal life recently, which is unfortunate," McIlroy said in a statement to the outlet. "Responding to each rumor is a fool's game. Over the past weeks, Erica and I have realized that our best future was as a family together. Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning."
McIlroy and Stoll began dating in 2015 and tied the knot in April 2017 at Ashford Castle in Ireland. They welcomed daughter Poppy Kennedy McIlroy on Aug. 31, 2020 in Jupiter, Florida.
McIlroy, 35, filed divorce documents in Palm Beach County, Florida, on May 13, days ahead of the 2024 PGA Championship at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, where he finished tied for 12th place at 12-under.
Now, days before the first round of the U.S. Open gets underway in North Carolina, McIlroy said he and Stoll have settled their differences and both "look forward to a new beginning."
The third-ranked golfer in the world has not won a major since 2014. He last won the U.S Open in 2011 at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Maryland. McIlroy is one of the favorites to win the tournament, according to BetMGM odds.
