People are saying Rory McIlroy won the Open because he dumped Caroline Wozniacki

Shaking our heads.

RORY MCILROY Won the British Open yesterday.

His game hadn’t been the best for a while, coincidentally dipping around the time he got with his ex-fiancée, Caroline Wozniacki. But he dumped her in May, and now she’s getting the blame for his past failures.

Some were certain of the connection

Rory dumped wozniacki and won two majors. Her inability to win one mustve been rubbing off on him

Congrats to Rory McIlroy for winning another major. He should've dumped Wozniacki a long time ago. #TheOpen2014 #golf

Others just thought it was a huuuuge coincidence

Rory dumped Wozniacki before the wedding, now he is playing tremendous golf... Coincidence? I think NOT.

Rory's nerves must be jangling but a great sand save. Probably his most pleasing up and down since he dumped Caroline Wozniacki #Open2014

One thing’s for sure, Caroline has magical powers to curse

McIlroy's been beasting ever since he dumped Wozniacki. I wonder if there's a correlation.......

But hey, she’s been on the up too

Wozniacki won the Istanbul Cup yesterday.

Rory McIlroy: He lost the dame and found his game.
Caroline Wozniacki: Dumped by a chump, she became a champ.

But her coverage wasn’t quite as favourable as Rory’s

So, she's not a tennis champion. Doesn't even have a name. Just some girl who got dumped by a golfer. #everydaysexism pic.twitter.com/tA83VlDjwv
