McIlroy heads to the US Open at Oakmont this week with one eye on a sixth major title.
And he is ready for a fresh start with wife Erica Stoll after a turbulent 18 months.
The Northern Irishman announced last May that he and Stoll were filing for a divorce after seven years of marriage.
But just a month later, the couple confirmed they had reconciled.
Rory explained: “Over the past weeks, Erica and I have realised that our best future was as a family together.
“Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.”
McIlroy and Stoll currently live in a mega £16million mansion in Jupiter, Florida, with their daughter Poppy, 4.
The couple have been looking to fly the nest from the Sunshine State in favour of a cooler climate.

McIlroy and Erica have been waiting for completion on a new home on the outskirts of London over the past two years.
Construction on their bespoke mansion is now finished, with the family set to move in.
Rory’s new digs are located in Virginia Water, on the west side of the capital.
The plot is located in the exclusive Wentworth estate, according to The Telegraph.
McIlroy will retain his home in South Florida alongside the new base in London.
Following his win at the Masters, the family stopped off to see how construction was progressing.
Inside Rory McIlroy’s whirlwind love life
RORY MCILROY enjoyed a high-profile romance with former tennis world number one Caroline Wozniacki before their split in 2014.
The following year, the golf ace began dating Erica Stoll, who he had first met on the PGA Tour in 2011.
Erica often interacted with players through her role as the PGA’s manager of championship volunteer operations.
She even prevented McIlroy from missing his tee time at the 2012 Ryder Cup after some confusion over the time zone.
The incident began a firm friendship between the pair, four years before their relationship turned romantic.
McIlroy and Erica were spotted on a string of dates in Rochester, New York, in the early days of their relationship.
Just eight months later, the couple got engaged in Paris and walked down the aisle at Ashford Castle in Ireland in 2017.
The pair then welcomed daughter Poppy into the world three years later.
Throughout their time together, McIlroy and Erica have kept their relationship to themselves, with the golfer keen to protect his family from the cameras during filming of Netflix’s Full Swing documentary series.
However, after seven years of marriage, McIlroy filed for divorce from Erica.
The reasons for the divorce were not disclosed, but the Northern Irishman submitted documents to a court in Florida.
However, a few weeks later, performed a U-turn on their decision to divorce.
McIlroy told the outlet: “Thankfully, we have resolved our differences and look forward to a new beginning.”
McIlroy said: “We first went to London with Erica and Poppy to see our new home that we’re building.
“We made the trip over to Belfast to see a few other people that are important to us.
“Just to be with them, to be with Erica and Poppy and my mom and dad.
“To see Michael Bannon, my lifelong coach, and spend a bit more time with Harry [Diamond] and his wife.
“[To] celebrate with the people that have been part of this whole thing for my entire career was absolutely amazing.”
