McIlroy case on hold as parties make progress

Barristers for both sides in the Rory McIlroy case have agreed to defer the opening of his action against Horizon Management until 4pm.

Judge Brian Cregan was told by counsel for Mr McIlroy, Paul Gallagher SC, that both parties "were making progress".

Earlier, barristers told Judge Cregan that as the case was set to last eight weeks, legal teams wished to narrow the issues at hand, so wished to defer a start until this afternoon.

McIlroy was in the High Court for an brief initial hearing this morning.

Fresh from a weekend victory in Dubai, the world's top golfer is suing his former management company and in turn is being counter-sued by them.

Efforts to resolve the dispute through court-ordered mediation have proven unsuccessful.

The case centres on McIlroy's contract with Dublin-based Horizon and two other linked companies, the Malta-based Gurteen and Canovan Management, also based in Dublin.

In court papers when the case was launched in late 2013, it was claimed McIlroy signed up with Ridge's agency at an informal meeting on the day of Horizon's Christmas party in 2011 when McIlroy was 22.

The world number one claims that fees charged by Horizon were almost four times what top ten golfers pay to agents.

Horizon is counter-suing the four-time major winner after breaking his contract early.
