In a bit of surprising news on the relationship front, Rory McIlroy has called off his engagement and ended his relationship with tennis star and girlfriend Caroline Wozniacki.

McIlroy issued a statement saying that he has called off the engagement after already sending out wedding invites to guests, saying the invitations actually triggered something internally that made him realize he isn't ready for marriage.

“The problem is mine,” he said in a statement sent out by his management firm. “The wedding invitations issued at the weekend made me realize that I wasn’t ready for all that marriage entails.”
“There is no right way to end a relationship that has been so important to two people,” he added. “I wish Caroline all the happiness she deserves and thank her for the great times we have had. I will not be saying anything more about our relationship in any setting.”

ok, so you aren't ready for marriage.... That's fine... But it doesn't mean you have to break up with the chick

Meaning someone got in his ear and said "did you see what happened to Tiger?".

Perhaps. but do you see Rory doing a Tiger?

Money and fame will get to any guy. It's easy for me not to cheat on my wife, I don't have hot chicks literally throwing themselves at me while I'm living in a hotel for a good chunk of time. He's a goofy looking dude, but with that money and fame he will have gold-diggers jsut trying to hook him.

Why do you even care? Let the guy do whatever he likes. Like all the other golfers I like him for his golf game not his freaking personal life.

Smart move...reasons don't matter...if you're not ready, you're not ready...it'll cost a LOT more later to call it quits.

So I can't have an opinion?

That or someone got in his pants!

 

[redseat]

right, I have no problem with him calling it off if he wasn't ready and that is a smart move... But you possibly could still stay with her.. That's all I am saying..

 

[NEhomer]

Um, no. Once you go there, there's no going back.

 

[redseat]

go where? And again I said if he wasn't ready he isn't ready, good for him

 

[SoCalWizFan]

Did I say that? Whatever. I will focus on golf. I will leave this type of crap to shows like TMZ & The View. Honestly - we don't know these people so why does it matter who he marries, dates, etc?

Their schedules make it so the are apart at least half the time. There's no reason the #1 golfer in the world should be alone at least half the time. Exclusive relationships are tough enough when women are throwing themselves at you. An exclusive relationship with a person who is going to be on another continent from you for most of the next decade seems unworkable. They seem like a cute couple, but frankly, I'm stunned they lasted this long.

Engagement.

you were implying it yes. Was this a story about a golfer? Yes... Is this a message board? Yes... Did I say anything against his character? NO.. So why not have a thread?

 

[redseat]

Engagement.

Oh, thought you were talking about something else... I totally misread what you said. Thanks for the clarification.

 

[ATL96Steeler]

right, I have no problem with him calling it off if he wasn't ready and that is a smart move... But you possibly could still stay with her.. That's all I am saying..

From my perspective...if she was "ready" and he wasn't...I think the right thing to do is just move because she could find someone else that is also "ready".

If it was reversed, I wouldn't want to be with that girl any longer if my wedding that was planned out was cancelled b/c she wasn't ready.

 

[redseat]

and all you people calling me out... You were all over Tiger and his scandals being on here. Yet when I start one about Rory (which isn't even a scandal or anything that bad at all) I get called out

Just saw this article.

Yea, this goes beyond having cold feet. Maybe one of his boys reminded him marriage will always be an option, but banging lots and lots of hot young girls won't.
