The sighting comes two days after the athlete filed to divorce Stoll, 36, after seven years of marriage.

According to docs obtained by Page Six, McIlroy filed to end his union in Florida, citing that the marriage was “irretrievably broken.”

His rep told us that his desire is “to ensure this difficult time is as respectful and amicable as possible” and pointed out that “he will not be making any further comment.”

McIlroy stated in the docs that he and Stoll should create a parenting plan and have “shared parental responsibility” for their 3-year-old daughter, Poppy.

He also wants the court to uphold their prenuptial agreement, signed in March 2017.

Stoll worked as a PGA transport official when she and McIlroy first met in 2012. At the time, she obtained a police escort so he could get to his course after he overslept.
