Profits rise €100,000 at Rory McIlroy’s former agency

Accumulated profits at the sports agency business that hit the jackpot over its break-up with golfing superstar, Rory McIlroy increased by over €100,000 last year.

As a result of an out-of-court agreement last January in Dublin ending its relationship with McIlroy, Horizon Sports received a reported €21.8m from the golfer. Ahead of the court case, Horizon Sports Management Ltd deferred lodging its annual accounts last year.

However, it has now lodged filings for the 18-month period to the end of June last and the new figures show that the firm’s accumulated profits increased by €110,857, from €339,164 to €450,021.
