Rory McIlroy Reconciles with Wife, Prepares for Masters

Rory McIlroy is preparing for the Masters at Augusta, aiming to end an 11-year title drought, while also navigating personal challenges following a brief divorce filing last year. McIlroy filed for divorce from his wife, Erica Stoll, in May 2024, but reversed his decision within weeks, citing their desire to remain together for the sake of their daughter, Poppy. The couple has since reconciled and has been seen together at events, including the Par 3 Contest, where they enjoyed family time. McIlroy credits Erica's support and encouragement for helping him focus on his game, revealing his new relaxation techniques, such as watching Netflix series and reading fiction. He expressed gratitude for having his family around during significant tournaments and acknowledged their importance in his life. As he competes in the Masters, McIlroy hopes to secure the coveted green jacket that has eluded him.
