PHOTOS - Rory McIlroy's ex-girlfriend Holly Sweeney photo gallery
Golf superstar Rory McIlroy’s ex-girlfriend Holly Sweeney has shown off her assets to the world – and earned a rap across the knuckles from her angry parents.
The 22-year-old university student stripped down for a raunchy photo shoot with a photographer friend.
Rory’s fans got a glimpse of what he’s missing as his former lover went topless, was smothered in baby oil and posed in sexy lingerie for the shoot.
The Irish Sun reports that the photos were available on camera man Gavin Millar’s webpage until Holly’s parents complained.

A source told the paper: “Rory won’t think this is a clever move for her - he’s most likely to think Holly is embarrassing herself and that she could be doing something far more worthwhile with her time.
“It’s backfired on Holly already as her parents have found out and they don’t have a clue why she did it.”
Holly has defended her decision to pose topless and insisted the photos have an ‘artistic’ value.
She said: “No-one had ever asked me to go topless before but I know Gavin well and I trust him.
“I agreed to these shots because they were artistic. This was art, it wasn’t tacky at all.”

In response, Rory tweeted a picture of himself holidaying with new love, tennis ace Caroline Wozniacki, in Aspen, Colorado.

but i also wonder why its considered a scandal. most of us didnt even remember who she was so her fame is already past. she chooses to flash herself its her problem, has nothing to do with Rory or anyone else. she's history when it comes to him, we've moved on, so should the media!
saraindc | Jan 05, 2013, 10:16 AM EST
maybe she's just plucking at straws to find a way to stay in the news - now that she's no longer "famous" as the girl on his arm she's lost the attention she probably liked - so sad, too bad, she needs to grow up and move on

Whoa to the guy who ends up with Holly....will always feel like second fiddle to Rory. Holly should have swallowed her pride and moved on.

Don't seem to understand this type of crap What's the problem with a few photos of the mammary glands Look at that wife of the ladyboy in Closer I have several copies still on hand and it seems now the rumour is going around that the happy pappy's photo is out in Closer again and its not what everyone expects is there no end to this form of calumny and even if she is buck naked and jealous why should we intervene in a story where hell hath no fury like this gal. Keep it up that gal the reasons are top and should sell by the millions I hope to see you some time on the bus to Forestside and I have a camera on my mobile phone Now that would be fun Non!!

Another website that attracts readers with misleading headlines. She did NOT bare all. Do you not have any journalistic ethics. Bush-league stuff.

Let us go easy on this kid regardless of her mistakes or how we view her beauty contrasted with Rory's newest flame. We really don't know that she was "after him for his money". She had a handsome, successful and wealthy sports figure for a while, doing international travel and on center stage. It takes time to come down from the clouds and get back to life in Belfast. A few crash landings might be expected, but hopefully less public.

What a low down nasty action to take because he has found a nicer more mature, better looking girl who adores him and is not after him for his money. As reported elsewhere Irish University students are turning to prostitution and I suppose she thinks she will be classed a a high class hooker, which incidentally couldn't be further from the truth. She needs to go to a head shrink. Despicable bitch.
