Superstars Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki are to set up home together in an $11 million Florida mansion.
The Irish Sun reports that McIlroy and his Danish girlfriend have already done a deal for the house in Palm Beach Gardens.
The paper says the 10,000sq ft luxury pad has six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a world-class gym, pool two storeys of Zen decor and a private deep-water dock in the back.
McIlroy will also be able to hone his skills on a private putting green in the grounds of the house, built in 2012.
Situated next door to the Jack Nicklaus Bear golf club where McIlroy is a regular on the practise ground, the property is situated in the exclusive Old Gate enclave.
World number one McIlroy can afford to pay cash for the luxury home having won over $14 million in 2012 alone.
He has also signed a new sponsorship deal with Nike worth $250 million over the next 10 years.
American websites claim that McIlroy has already signed a contract for the Palm Beach house at close to $11 million.
Wozniacki is currently resident in Monaco while McIlroy has put his Belfast home up for sale.

he'll miss his charlie chaplin marching friends and the noise of their lambeg pounder drum. Like O'Reilly whose loud mouthing be his technique to pound sense into his nonsense.

Rory and Caroline will of course be married before shacking up together. With all those rooms there is lots of space for their babies. In their 'celebrity' status they would like to show good example to other young people. Yes, there will still be lots of lolly left over for those impoverished who do not have a roof over their heads let alone multiple rooms........

padraig o'c: chill, bro... but to my point: why would a guy trade in Belfast digs for south Florida?

Another super rich superstar lacking imagination and compassion. No thought of charity to help suffering poor in this decision. Revolting wretched excess.

No wonder those Nike sneakers are so expensive while children on the assembly line receive modest wages. Rory might make a significant donation to union organizations to lift all boats!
