After Rory was crowned the tournament winner on Monday, March 17, 2025, he was joined by Erica and their daughter, Poppy.
PGA Tour’s official social media handle shared a clip on Twitter of the sweet reunion.
In the video, Rory walks over to Poppy and picks up his daughter, giving her a sweet peck. Stoll then approaches Rory, and the couple kisses.
Poppy handed her father a sweet prize: a red flower. It was Rory’s second Players Championship win in his career.
Earlier in May 2024, several reports confirmed that McIlroy filed paperwork to end his and Stoll’s marriage after seven years, calling it “irretrievably broken.” In the same month, a spokesperson for McIlroy told the Irish Star that,
“Rory McIlroy’s communications team confirmed today that a divorce has been filed,” “They stressed Rory’s desire to ensure this difficult time is as respectful and amicable as possible. He will not be making any further comment.”
Rory’s Spokesperson
The decision to divorce came days before the 2024 PGA Championship. During the sporting event, Rory refused to discuss his divorce.
One month after the couple’s split made headlines, the athlete filed to dismiss the divorce. They rekindled their relationship and held their first public event at the U.S. Open tournament in June 2024.
Rory briefly addressed his divorce and reconciliation in season 3 of Netflix’s Full Swing.
