Rory McIlroy is having a spring to remember. The 36-year-old from Northern Ireland finally captured his first Masters title, completing the career grand slam. He now turns his attention to the PGA Championship, a tournament he’s already won twice.
McIlroy’s last PGA Championship win came in 2014, capping off a dominant three-year stretch that saw him claim PGA Tour Player of the Year honors from 2012 to 2014.
While McIlroy remains focused on adding more victories to his resume, he’s also making a major personal move. Reports indicate he is preparing to relocate to London, where his new family home is nearly complete.
Though he’ll maintain his residence in Florida, London will become his primary home base in the coming years.
“#RORY’s NEW HOME — The McIlroy’s new family home in London is nearly complete and will reportedly be ready for move-in following The U.S. Open. “
“According to @TelegraphSport, McIlroy will keep his home in Florida but permanently move across the pond in a few years time. @TrackingRory”

McIlroy has experienced some ups and downs in his personal life as well. He and his wife Erica Stoll, who share a daughter born in 2020, faced a public challenge in May 2024 when McIlroy filed for divorce. Just a month later, the filing was withdrawn.
“We have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning,” McIlroy stated in June.
On the course, McIlroy has been one of the most consistent players of his generation. Since joining the PGA Tour, he has racked up 29 wins. He’s also tallied 19 victories on the European Tour, along with single wins on both the Asian Tour and the PGA Tour of Australasia.
Following his win at the Masters, McIlroy teed it up at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans. He is currently competing in the Truist Championship in Philadelphia.
Up next is the PGA Championship, which begins May 15 at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina. It will mark the 107th edition of the tournament.
