Golfer Rory McIlroy Calls Off Wedding To Tennis Star Caroline Wozniacki

Former world No.1 golfer Rory McIlroy on Wednesday announced he had broken off his engagement to Danish tennis player Caroline Wozniacki only days after sending out the wedding invitations.

The 25-year-old Northern Irishman and two-time major champion said the issuing of the invitations had made him aware that he was not ready for marriage.
“There is no right way to end a relationship that has been so important to two people,” he explained through a statement issued by his Dublin-based communications consultants.
“The problem is mine,” McIlroy said.
“The wedding invitations issued at the weekend made me realise that I wasn’t ready for all that marriage entails.
“I wish Caroline all the happiness she deserves and thank her for the great times we’ve had. I will not be saying anything more about our relationship in any setting.”
Wozniacki is a former world No.1 on the WTA tour but sits 14th in the latest women’s rankings.
McIlroy has dropped to 10th in the latest men’s golf rankings.
The golden sporting couple’s high profile break-up came on the eve of McIlroy’s appearance at the European PGA Championship at Wentworth, where he said he had never considered pulling out of the top event.
“I just want to get my head into golf and concentrate on the tournament and try and do well.
“I want to drive straight into it and keep myself busy.
