Rory has said he's likely to rejoin the PGA tour after turning down the option to do so a year ago.
Shame...but I suppose the weather is better there.

Was kind of inevitable when he won the US Open and won the hearts of the American public.
Plus the weather is better! Wonder if he'll still keep his stance on Sawgrass though and not play next year.

I expect splitting with his Irish girlfriend and dating an American may have played a part too

Who's he dating now? I thought he was with that Danish tennis player.

I agree with Aztecs,this is all down to the response he got from them at the open.
They took him to there hearts,it also might take the pressure off him a bit.

He was quoted as saying that most of his favourite tournaments were in the States

He's said he is house hunting in Florida and so it was inevitable. I am disappointed European crowds won't get to see him play that often but look forward to watching him on Sky. He clearly feels more at home over there and so I guess you have to go where you are happiest

I'm guessing the girl friend thing is what has changed his mind. Florida to Belfast for a fumble is a long trip.

plenty of other golfers to admire on the european tour.

Well GMac lives in FL, as does the likes of Poulter so I dare say that had something to do with it as well.

A shame but he'll be back. Seems like only yesterday he said the US Tour 'isn't for me'. He's 22. 22-year-olds change their minds a lot.
I hope he doesn't believe all the hype he'll get out there.

I said pretty much exactly that on Sunday. I wonder if he is starting to believe all the hype and hysteria after the win at congressional.
Shame to see him go but I do think he wont last long over there and be back soon enough

Totally agree. I think he'll be back if things don't start going his way (again)

Good luck to the lad. He has the talent to make a good fist of it over there so why not.
Out of curiosity. Is the prize money greater in the states than in Europe?
Just a thought.
