U.S. Open golf champion Rory McIlroy confirms to the AP that he is dating No. 1 Caroline Wozniacki. McIlroy has been seen with the Dane in London and at the tournaments in Cincinnati and New Haven. He told reporters it would be fine to refer to her as his girlfriend.

"Why it's going so well is that we have so much in common," he said. "Obviously, different sports, but we're pretty much in the same position at a young age and we can talk about things that probably a lot of 21-, 22-year olds can't talk about. It's nice to have someone that sort of understands what you're going through."
