So, I was trying to figure out how tall and how much this golf guy, Rory McIlroy, weighs. I’ve seen him on TV, and I’ve heard people talk about him, and I guess I was just curious.
First off, I started by just typing his name into the search bar. I figured I’d start with the basics, you know? The first few results gave me a bunch of general stuff about him – like he’s from Northern Ireland, he’s 35 years old now, and he turned pro in 2007. He was born in some place called Holywood. Okay, cool, but that’s not really what I was after.
Then I started to get into the nitty-gritty of his height and weight. One site said he was 5 feet 9 inches tall, which is about 175 centimeters, and that he weighed around 160 pounds, or 73 kilograms. But then another site said he was 5 feet 8 inches! That’s 172.7 centimeters. So, which one is it? I was starting to get a little confused.
I even found this quote from him in some Irish newspaper, the Irish Times, I think it was, where he said that Tiger Woods gives him a hard time about being short and always asks him how tall he is. I guess even the pros tease each other about this stuff.
But yeah, there seemed to be some disagreement about his exact height. One said 5’9″, another said 5’8″. For the weight, though, it seemed pretty consistent at around 160 pounds.
- Rory is from Northern Ireland
- He is 35 years old.
- He turned pro in 2007.
- He was born in Holywood.
- He is 5 feet 8 or 9 inches.
- He weighs about 160 pounds.
Then there’s this phrase,”Key predictors of the health, stability.” I’m not even sure where that came from or what it means in this context. Maybe it got mixed up with some other search result. Anyway, it doesn’t really help me with my little investigation here.
So, after digging around a bit, it looks like Rory McIlroy is somewhere around 5 feet 8 or 9 inches tall and weighs about 160 pounds. That’s what I figured out at least. I guess the exact measurements might vary a little depending on where you look. It’s not like these things are always set in stone, right?
