Irish golfer Rory McIlroy buys $2 million Bugatti car

451 mile an hour car doesn't indiciate maturity. 'pears to be going to the boys 'ead. better he smartens up.

not true...

good grief. next we'll hear is that he's busy w****** off over 'hand-me-downs' from Charlo Sh e e n at weekends..ha ha.

Has he not denied this report...can someone verify this..

I care about him! He got me interested in golf again. Saw him win the silver medal at the OPEN in 2007. Quite a talented young man. Dubai and Quail Hollow victories were brilliant. Loved the pictures of him at Ryder Cup---youthful enthusiasm. Frank-speaking about Tiger---appreciate his candor. Has bought a few cars already. If he had bought the car, none of my business. It's his money and not mine. He works hard for it. Loved his birdies on the last 2 holes of the third round at Miami-WGC Cadillac. He was up there with the leaders who were melting away [Watney.] Of course, he did the same in fourth round but ended up tied for tenth. Had his parents there. Sounds like he's more than some have seen him. Others love him too. And as far as N.Ireland, part of the 32 for me!

Who cares about this guy? Let him take his british passport and play for england in the olympics and drive whatever car he wants off a cliff.

BKayDrake..When does real news become gossip/trash? You say?..When IC changes the fact's INTO gossip/trash. Seems gossip/trash is more digestible to a lot of people here.A plateful of fact's is alot healthier but less appetizing and amazingly harder to swallow for quite a few.

Does anybody check out the validity of these stories before they are posted? When does real news become gossip/trash?

Glad to hear the lad didn't blow two million on a car. I wouldn't spend more than a million!

According to Rory on Twitter just a couple of minutes ago this morning: McIlroyRory Reports that I have bought a bugatti veyron are completely untrue! Where do they come up with this stuff!? #getyourfactsright He further states: McIlroyRory Don't get me wrong, it's one of the best cars ever. But a million quid for a car? Really? Not for me! 8 minutes ago

I just think it's crazy that anybody should spend 2 million on a car! He needs to concentrate on developing his natural talent and aim for that world no.1 spot. I wouldn't like to think he is letting the money go to his head!

Well done Rory,fair play to you,enjoy son.
