Rory Daniel McIlroy (born 4 May 1989) is a professional golfer from Northern Ireland. He plays on both the European Tour and the PGA Tour. Rory has been ranked as the world number one golfer for over 100 weeks during his career.

He is one of only six golfers to achieve a modern career grand slam. This means he has won all four of golf's biggest championships. He was also the first European player to do this.

Rory had a very successful amateur career, becoming the world's top amateur golfer at age 17 in 2007. He turned professional later that year. He quickly became a star on the European Tour. He won his first European Tour event in 2009 and his first PGA Tour event in 2010.

Rory won his first major championship at the U.S. Open in 2011. By the time he was 25, he had won three more major titles: the PGA Championship in 2012 and 2014, and The Open Championship in 2014. In 2022, he became the first person to win the FedEx Cup three times. He also won The Players Championship in 2019 and 2025. After a long wait, he won the 2025 Masters Tournament in 2025, completing his career grand slam.

Rory has played for Europe, Ireland, and Great Britain & Ireland in different golf events. He has been a key player for Europe in the Ryder Cup many times, helping his team win in 2010, 2012, 2014, 2018, and 2023.

Early Life and Golf Beginnings

Rory McIlroy was born on May 4, 1989, in Holywood, County Down, Northern Ireland. His parents, Rosaleen and Gerry McIlroy, supported him greatly. Rory was their only child.

His father, Gerry, loved golf and played at a high level. Rory started playing golf very young, getting plastic clubs when he was just two years old. He often asked his dad to take him to the Holywood Golf Club nearby. By age three, he was already hitting golf balls 40 yards!

At home, Rory practiced chipping golf balls into the family's washing machine. He studied golf videos and even slept holding a golf club to improve his grip. When he was seven, he became the youngest member ever at Holywood Golf Club. He dreamed of becoming a professional golfer.

Rory's parents worked extra jobs to help him achieve his dream. His dad worked 100 hours a week, cleaning and bartending. His mom worked night shifts at a factory. They wanted to give Rory every chance to succeed. Rory later bought them a house, saying he could never fully repay them.

At nine years old, Rory won his first big international amateur tournament in Miami, Florida. He even appeared on a TV show, showing off his chipping skills. By age 12, he was a "scratch handicap" golfer, meaning he could play at a very high level. He left school in 2005 to focus completely on golf.

Amateur Success

Rory's amateur career was full of wins. He won the Ulster Boys' U15 Championship in 2002 and the U18 Championship in 2003. He was part of the Irish team that won the 2004 Junior Ryder Cup in the United States.

In 2005, Rory became the youngest winner of both the West of Ireland Championship and the Irish Close Championship. He decided not to go to college on a golf scholarship. Instead, he continued playing amateur golf in Europe.

Rory made his first appearance on the European Tour in May 2005, at just 15 years old. Two months later, he set a course record at Royal Portrush Golf Club by shooting a 61. In 2007, he helped Ireland win the European Amateur Team Championship.

In August 2006, Rory won the European Amateur in Italy. This win allowed him to play in The Open Championship the next year. He also kept his West of Ireland and Irish Close titles.

Rory made his first "cut" in a professional tournament in February 2007 at the Dubai Desert Classic. He couldn't take the prize money because he was still an amateur. After this, he became the number one amateur golfer in the world.

In July 2007, Rory played in his first major championship, The Open Championship. He finished tied for 42nd place and was the best amateur player, winning the silver medal. He ended his amateur career at the 2007 Walker Cup in September.

Becoming a Professional Golfer

Rory McIlroy officially became a professional golfer on September 18, 2007. He quickly earned his European Tour card for 2008, becoming the youngest player to do so at 18.

He entered the top 200 in the world rankings in January 2008. By November 2008, he was in the top 50, which earned him an invitation to the 2009 Masters Tournament.

First Wins and Ryder Cup Debut

Rory got his first professional win at age 19 at the Dubai Desert Classic in February 2009. This moved him up to 16th in the world rankings. He made his Masters debut in April, finishing tied for 20th.

In May 2010, Rory shot an amazing final round of 62 at the Quail Hollow Championship. He won his first PGA Tour event, becoming the youngest player since Tiger Woods to win a PGA Tour event before turning 21.

Rory played for Europe in the 2010 Ryder Cup. He helped Europe win the cup back from the United States.

First Major Championship Win

In April 2011, Rory led the 2011 Masters Tournament after three rounds. However, he had a tough final round and finished tied for 15th.

He bounced back strongly at the U.S. Open in June. Rory set new scoring records for 36 and 54 holes. He won his first major championship by eight strokes, finishing 16-under par. At 22, he was the youngest U.S. Open winner since 1923. This victory moved him to fourth in the world rankings.

Later in 2011, Rory won the Lake Malaren Shanghai Masters and the UBS Hong Kong Open.

World Number One and More Major Wins

In March 2012, Rory won the Honda Classic. This victory made him the number one golfer in the world for the first time. He was the second-youngest player to reach this spot, after Tiger Woods.

In August 2012, Rory won the 2012 PGA Championship by eight strokes. This was a new record for the largest winning margin at the PGA Championship. At 23, he became the youngest golfer to win multiple major championships since Seve Ballesteros.

He continued his winning streak in September 2012, winning the Deutsche Bank Championship and the BMW Championship. He became the first European to win four PGA Tour events in one season.

Rory was a key player in the 2012 Ryder Cup, known as the "Miracle at Medinah." He famously arrived just minutes before his tee time but still won his match, helping Europe achieve a stunning comeback victory. He finished his amazing 2012 season by winning the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai.

Challenges and Comebacks

In 2013, Rory faced some challenges after changing his golf equipment. His performance dropped, and he fell to sixth in the world rankings. However, he ended the year with a win at the Emirates Australian Open.

In 2014, Rory had a fantastic year. He won the 2014 BMW PGA Championship in May. Then, in July, he won The Open Championship at Royal Liverpool Golf Club. He led from start to finish, claiming his third major title.

Just weeks later, he won the 2014 WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. The very next week, he won his fourth major championship, the 2014 PGA Championship. At 25, he joined golf legends Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods as the only players to win four majors by that age.

Rory continued to play a big role in the 2014 Ryder Cup, helping Europe win again.

More Wins and Injuries

In 2015, Rory won the Omega Dubai Desert Classic for the second time. He also won the 2015 WGC-Cadillac Match Play and the Wells Fargo Championship for a second time.

However, in July 2015, Rory injured his ankle playing soccer. This forced him to miss The Open Championship and other tournaments. He returned later that year and won the DP World Tour Championship, Dubai again.

In 2016, Rory won his home Irish Open and donated his prize money to charity. He also won the Deutsche Bank Championship and the Tour Championship, which earned him his first FedEx Cup title and a $10 million bonus.

The year 2017 was tough for Rory as he didn't win any tournaments. He struggled with a rib injury and played fewer events. He also changed his caddie, choosing his childhood friend Harry Diamond.

Return to Form and Second FedEx Cup

Rory started 2018 strong, finishing second at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. In March, he won the Arnold Palmer Invitational, his first win since 2016. He also played in the 2018 Ryder Cup, where Europe won.

In 2019, Rory had a great start to the PGA Tour season. He won The Players Championship in March. This made him one of only three players, along with Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods, to win four majors and 15 PGA Tour titles before age 30.

He then won the RBC Canadian Open in June. Two months later, he won his second FedEx Cup title by winning the Tour Championship. This came with a record $15 million prize. He also won the 2019 WGC-HSBC Champions in November.

Continued Success and Third FedEx Cup

Rory started 2020 by returning to the world number one ranking. In May 2021, he won the Wells Fargo Championship for the third time.

He represented Ireland at the Olympic Games in August 2021, tying for third but losing in a playoff for a medal. In October 2021, he won the CJ Cup, his 20th PGA Tour victory.

In 2022, Rory had a very consistent year in major championships, finishing in the top 10 in all four of them for the first time in his career. He won the RBC Canadian Open again in June. In August, he won his third Tour Championship, claiming his third FedEx Cup victory and an $18 million bonus. This made him the first player to win three FedEx Cups. He also returned to world number one after winning the CJ Cup in October.

In 2023, Rory won the Hero Dubai Desert Classic in January and the Genesis Scottish Open in July. He finished second at the U.S. Open. He was the top points scorer for Europe in the 2023 Ryder Cup, helping them win again. He also won his fifth Race to Dubai title.

In 2024, Rory won the Hero Dubai Desert Classic for the fourth time. He also won the Zurich Classic of New Orleans with Shane Lowry and the Wells Fargo Championship for the fourth time. He finished second at the U.S. Open and won his sixth Race to Dubai title.

Completing the Grand Slam

In February 2025, Rory won the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. In March, he won The Players Championship for the second time.

In April 2025, Rory achieved a huge milestone at the 2025 Masters Tournament. He held a two-stroke lead after 54 holes. He then won in a playoff against Justin Rose, claiming his first Masters title. This victory meant he had won all four major championships in golf, completing the career grand slam. He is only the sixth player in the modern era to do so, joining legends like Gene Sarazen, Ben Hogan, Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus, and Tiger Woods.

Technique and Coaches

Rory McIlroy is known for hitting the golf ball very far, even though he is not the tallest golfer. When he first started, he had a powerful, flowing swing.

Early in his career, Rory had some back problems. To fix this, he started working with an exercise expert, Stephen McGregor, in 2010. They focused on making his legs and core stronger. This helped him generate more power from the ground up and put less strain on his back. Rory has said that McGregor's help was very important for his career.

Rory also worked on his putting, which is how he rolls the ball into the hole. He got help from different coaches, including Dave Stockton and Brad Faxon, who was known as a great putter. In 2015, Rory had laser eye surgery, which he said helped him see the greens better for putting.

Personal Life

Rory McIlroy was raised Catholic. He has a British passport and identifies as Irish and Northern Irish. He attended a mixed school with both Catholic and Protestant students.

In 2009, Rory bought a house in Northern Ireland with his own practice golf facility. In 2012, he moved to Jupiter, Florida, in the U.S., which is a popular place for golfers to live. He also has homes in Monaco and Dubai.

Rory is a big fan of Manchester United F.C. football club. He also supports the Northern Ireland national team and plays football himself. He once injured his ankle playing soccer, which made him miss a big golf tournament. He also enjoys Ulster Rugby.

Rory has appeared in TV shows like The Grand Tour and the Netflix golf documentary Full Swing. He even had a small role in the 2025 movie Happy Gilmore 2.

Rory married Erica Stoll in April 2017. They have a daughter, born in September 2020.

Philanthropy

Rory McIlroy cares about helping children. In 2011, he became an ambassador for UNICEF Ireland.

In 2013, Rory created The Rory Foundation. Its goal was to support charities that help children. Through his foundation, he gave a lot of money to organizations like the Cancer Fund for Children. The foundation closed in 2018, but Rory continues his charity work privately. In 2023, he donated €1 million for a new lodge for the Cancer Fund for Children.
