Rory McIlroy Enjoys Family Day at Marine Life Center with Wife and Daughter Following U.S. Open Defeat
BACKGRID/MEGA
Rory McIlroy appears to be getting over his U.S. Open loss with the help of his family and turtles … the star golfer was seen hitting up a Marinelife center with his wife and daughter on Monday — roughly 24 hours after his heartbreaking defeat at Pinehurst.
McIlroy was spotted leaving the Loggerhead sanctuary in Juno Beach, FL. with his fam by his side — and while it seems they had a good day looking at sea creatures … it’s not hard to see the 35-year-old athlete still appears to be reeling from his Sunday meltdown.

Check out some footage of the McIlroys as they left their day date by the ocean … while Mom and Daughter looked content holding some goodies from the building, McIlory was noticeably skulking feet behind.
Of course, it’s hard to blame Rory for the long face … after all, he had control of the major golf event over the weekend — but fumbled it to Bryson DeChambeau after missing a pair of what looked like gimme putts down the stretch.

However, while his game on the course clearly needs a bit more refinement … it at least seems everything’s getting better back at home.
You’ll recall, Rory filed for divorce from Erica last month — but had an apparent change of heart days before the U.S. Open kicked off last week. Both Rory and Erica were rockin’ their wedding rings — a good sign that they’re well on their way to mending their issues.

As for his putting woes — we’re sure Rory’s already back at work hammering those out … but the next major won’t take place ’til mid-July, leaving him plenty more time to wonder what if.
