From what I have been reading, it is going to happen, but 10 year/250 million. That is Lebron type money, isn't it?
Rory's new Nike deal?
Are we going to see the Boy Wonder in Swooshes next season? That seems to be the word on the street with Rory McIlroy, who the Irish Times is saying could sign a deal with Nike at the end of the year worth up to $250 million.
Seriously.
Rory's deal with Titleist/FootJoy is done at the end of this year, and there are reports that McIlroy could join buddy Tiger Woods under the Swoosh, giving Nike the two biggest golf stars in the world by a mile.
McIlroy's deal is said to be 10 years, $250 million, and would mean Rory could wear the Nike golf clothes and play all Nike equipment just like Woods.
No idea if this actually happens, but that is an incredible figure for a kid that is said to be the second most marketable athlete in the world right now.
