McIlroy case settled

Senior Counsel announced at 11 o'clock that the entire matter had been settled, after talks between both parties.

Rory McIlroy and his former manager have reached a settlement in their multi-million Euro legal dispute.

The World Number 1 and Horizon Sports Management had been locked in the dispute for 18 months over a contract the 25 year old signed with the company in 2011, and an extension that would take him up to 2017.

Horizon Sports Management was counter-suing him – accusing him of breaching his contract and not paying fees.
