Rory McIlroy Net Worth -wealth rockets of the Masters winner in the middle of the PGA championship fights

Rory McIlroy's wealth has a significant increase in the past 12 months, and the Northern Irishman has reportedly said goodbye to a fortune of £ 260 million

Rory McIlroy has an astonishing increase in his assets by 35 million last year.

This considerable increase from the previous evaluation of 225 million GBP is documented in the last issue of the Sunday Times Rich list and secures its place among the country's financial titans.

The renowned rich list, which celebrates its 37th anniversary in 2025, shows the 350 richest people across Great Britain. Remarkably, McIlroy stands up in the U-40 list under 40, claims 19th place overall and leads as the richest figure in Northern Ireland.

Remarkably, Mcilroy could be even higher, since the rich list predominantly evaluates assets such as property, works of art, horse investments and opportunities for the stock corporation and ignores physical cash.

The 36 -year -old McIlroy added great financial success when he had completed the career last month with his triumph at the Masters -a victory that earned him 3.15 million GBP and increased his PGA Tour Life income to astonishing 80 million GBP.

Despite individual successes such as McIlroy's, collective prosperity has dropped among the richest Great Britain and the total number of £ 772.8 billion has dropped back – a decrease of 3 percent compared to the previous year.

Robert Watts, the business journalist who compiled the list, shows the changing flood of wealth distribution, reports on a decline in the number of billionaires and the overall assets.

Watts reflected the developing economic scenario with the inscription: “The Rich list of the Sunday Times changes. Our billionaire has dropped and the combined wealth of those who occur in our research falls.

“We also find that less of the Superrich of the world live in Great Britain. Our research continues to find a variety of self-made entrepreneurs who find the assets not only from artificial intelligence, video games and new technologies, but also banal everyday objects such as make-up, hadiators and jogging tenges.

“We know that many of our readers find these people and their stories inspire – especially the many who had hard starts or setbacks to their life and career.”

Mcilroy's sensational play-off victory against Justin Rose in Augusta saw how he joined the elite circle of the player with a career grand slam, while at the same time entering his fifth big title and only puting him behind Sir Nick Faldo.

Nevertheless, McIlroy is now facing a challenging climb if he is supposed to win successive main victories after a shaky round full of mistakes in the 107th US PGA championship.

The golfer from Holywood had a stumbling block and submitted a three-over-saving 74 and gave him discouraging shots by the early leader Jhonattan Vegas.

Vegas created an unforgettable finale on the greens and secured five birdies in the last six holes and thus stamped himself as the first Venezuelan who led after a round of a large championship.

Vegas led conveniently from two strokes and sat in front of the Australian cam Davis and Ryan Gerard von North Carolina, while the European captain of Ryder Cup, Luke Donald, left only one stroke behind Aaron Rai, Ryan Fox, Alex Smalley and Stephan Jaeger.

The England Matt Fitzpatrick and Scotland's Robert Macintyre were only a stroke on three under and to us Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley and Tyrrell Hatton.

McIlroy, who had only managed to hit three fairways in the regulation, was lucky enough not to end up in the drink with several stubborn T -shots.

He decided not to get in touch with the media after the round, but instead drove directly to the practice area to prepare for the following day.
