Rory calls off wedding!

Rorys parents have destroyed his career and he's daft enough to listen to them, move on mummys boy its a big world out there...,


Do you think you could stop throwing insults around like that and especially at the young mans family as well as himself

It's absolutely pathetic

I think this could be the problem. Since creating his own management company run by his Dad I suspect he will never get an objective view of the world.

His golf has gone down hill and his sullen attitude seems to surface every time he hits poor shots.

He need some-one who will tell him the truth about is golf and the world around him. Chubby probably tried and that's why he lost the contract; the second company he appointed went the same way.

Most of this followed him winning the Nike deal and with the money came the arrogance and problems.

At 25 he needs to get a mature view of himself and treat others with respect; then the rest of the world might treat him will respect !!

Can you point out the evidence that shows he isn't treating others with respect ?

I have to agree and think this seems a decent synopsis of the situation
 
Too high too far too soon, name that tune.:whistle: But seriously better now, than waiting till kids come along. Thats my golf team hopes dashed me tinks, how inconsiderate of him .:whistle:
 
I gave my thoughts on it , people are free to agree or disagree as is everyones right on an open forum but by crikey some people have some strong opinions on people they dont really know

Cant be easy living your life in the limelight 24/7 .. dont get me wrong i do realise these people court fame and want to be in the publice eye for promotional opportunities when it suits etc and i can imagine that is a great feeling

I can also imagine the price you pay for the above can be a big one ,

But il repeat what i said , if it was my son or daughter and they werent sure , id be telling them to call it off and wait til they were
 
That's a pathetic joke of a post

Shocking judgement of a young man you have prob never met - yet believe you know him.
Can't believe im going to say this but phil is spot on. What a joke of a post. Rory seems, on the surface to be a grounded humble guy with his head screwed on. If my golf had gone as bad as his then you certainly wouldn't want to see my post game interview

I have no reservations totally agreeing with Phil cos he's absolutely right!

Go buy a new dictionary because yours has mixed up 'factual' with 'opinion'.

And this is spot on too!

Shame to see such a split though. It's not as if either won't survive though!
 
Some moral high heed yins on here mind eh?

Jeeesus H Christ guys he's no wanting to continue to bone her,wants to put it about a bit more so has ditched this one.

What's new in the life of a young buck?
 
you are right, loads of crap being spouted on here. why single out my message?! all I said is he needs to sort himself out, which he does. the last year or two he has struggled on and off the course, he needs to get his head straight and hopefully get his game back to where it was.

none of us have any idea whats going on in his life, there may be more to it. maybe the breakdown of his parents marriage over the last year or so has given him doubts, who knows. I, like many others here don't have the answers. I am a fan of Rorys, I haven't jumped on him, called him spoilt or an idiot etc, so im not sure why you are jumping on my comment, but anyway, be careful getting down off that high horse there champ.

Jump on your post, a wee bit dramatic. I simply used your original point to start mine, something that happens quite often. I answered your point and put in mine. No offence, don’t take it to heart.
However, we do agree on many points regarding Rory.
 
Joe public will not know (and now that NoTW is not around, no hacking options either)

Irrespective of what happened or not..I hope both of them bounce back and we all can get on with life and sports. Rors has a gift and he needs to show it to the world. It is a wonderful opportunity as Tiger is away and we got a fresh set of people trying to get into the space.

The game needs star power.. My 4 yr old can only identify 2 golfers: Tiger & Rors.. So for the sake of the next gen (& Ryder cup) come on Rors...

H'mm! What gauge line are you using? :whistle:

Dont be ridiculous, the point I'm trying to make is that the guy is family controlled and its affecting his mind and his game.Rory needs to grow up take control an employ professional golf management.Faldo was right leaving Titleist and Chubby was wrong and that shows, the family pushed him towards the Nike money and their control and its not working.Money over re-writing the record books it never fails to amaze me.I guess one day the penny will drop with the guy but it might be too late then.

What facts do you have to back up your claim that this is factual rather than merely your opinion (which you are entitled to)?

Simply repeating an opinion - or shouting louder - doesn't make an opinion a fact!

I'd venture to opine - and it's purely opinion - that it's a pretty 'grown-up' decision to make to call a wedding off. The less mature way would be to carry on and have it all go wrong a little way down the road.

To be honest Mcilroy is a spoilt brat who struggles to be a man, he conducts himself wrongly and now he has devastated a young woman who is better off without him cos he would have to have consult his family with every issue to do with his marriage and her life would have been hell.The bloke couldnt play golf and handle marriage let alone kids without his parents there wiping his ****.Back in the day when Jack was married with 5 kids he would take them all with him on tour and he was still a champion, Mcilroy would have had everything taken care of nowdays but he still cant handle it, poor lamb....I hope he doesent make the cut at the PGA and drops outside the top 500 and leave elite pro golf to real people.

I agree, modern life is rubbish isn't it, and so confusing. And Jack managed it without these modern clubs and balls that make the game so easy.

Jack used to live for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. He used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when he'd got home his Dad would thrash him to sleep wi' his belt. You try and tell the young people of today like Rory and he won't believe you. I say bring back national service..
