Rory calls off wedding!

[bluewolf]

Ok, dumped holly, dumped titleist, dumped img, dumped Wozniaki, dumped new management company, proposed to Wozniaki, sued old management company, dumped Wozniaki, started his own management company (aged 25). Great life skills. He's really well grounded. It's obvious.

Well we're all entitled to make some mistakes, but lumping him in with people who have cheated on their pregnant Missus with Prostitutes, Slept with their brothers wife behind his own wifes back, assaulted people in Pubs et etc, seems a bit harsh to me.. I'm not saying that he won't be a "Prat", but he hasn't gone too far down that road yet IMO....

So basically he split up with two girls ( havent we all - in fact maybe more )

Changed manufacturers when one offered more money ( would anyone do any different )

And he has changed management companies

Really cant see whats wrong or different with that - how does splitting up with a g/f and changing clubs and management companies make him "rubbish at life" ?

I fail to understand why people wouldnt use the word "pratt" after this unless of course they are likewise personalities..........

Think it was mentioned by someone a while back that the company he moved to after Chubby ( Horizon ) where trying to get more of a cut from him and tried to take a bigger percentage of the Nike deal than they were entitled too ?

And the group coaching sessions he has done with the kids at Holywood amongst other clubs

Because he is high profile. People talk about him as if they know him. All they know is the basics and what is fed to them by the media. I guess they have the perfect life that qualifies them to pass judgement on another person.

Correct.. God help us if we all had the media reporting everything we did.. I suspect some on here would come out very badly..

It seems human nature to take a dislike to self made successful individuals and a burning desire to knock them off the pedestal! Shame really

Some of the stuff on this thread is unreal. At least if i need a life coach i know where to come :rofl:

Caroline who? I bet Rory was more upset after ballsing up at Augusta that time. He has done her a favour calling it off rather than dragging it on under false pretences. They will both be upset for a bit but its not the end of the world.

Didn't really affect him today his decision to split, and it may of taken a lot off his mind and maybe he ought to just concentrate on golf for the time being and get back to where he was when he won his 2 majors.

Forget the girls - that's personal life, which Pro Golfers have distinct poor form with!

But each of those steps - it was Chubby Chandler's ISM btw, not IMG - can be seen as 'progressive developments' as well as negative ones, The law suit(s) are only part of the 'unwinding' process and is only happening because of the significant amount of money involved.

Am I the only one who thinks this thread has run its course. His personal life is his own. I/we dont know much about what really happened. We can all have opinions on what he should have or shouldnt have done and how mature/not so mature he is. I guess 250 posts on that should suffice.

Personally, I am thrilled by his run at Wentworth yesterday. Great to see him focus on his game and raise it to silence the critics. I hope he wins the majors. Golf without Tiger & Rory seems to be a bit souless.

On that bombshell.. really excited to see the Europeans starting to pick their game up. Luke, Lowry, Poults, Westy, Bjorn..... well done all..

 

[Big-Dog]

Well lot going on here about a golfer that has got as lot of talent and he did well to put everything behind this week-end. Easy for people to say sort himself out but at 25 making those decisions are going to be tough.

Just wish them both all the best and look forward to seeing him back to his best lets not do the normal in this country and chastise our stars let's encourage them. We always seem to put our overrated footballers on pedestals!!
