Oh those lovebirds have a sense of humor, sending tabloid writers who wrote of their multiple non-break-up breakups running about to work late into their New Year's Eve writing about the Twitter-announced engagement of Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki. Thanks to reader Matts for the tip.
The Tweet from Rory:
Happy New Year everyone! I have a feeling it's going to be a great year!! My first victory of 2014 #shesaidyes!! pic.twitter.com/gxO7rDDyPY

Caroline sent out an identical Tweet three minutes earlier. So technically she broke the news.
Happy New Year everyone! Rory and I started 2014 with a bang! ... I said YES!!!! pic.twitter.com/J7c2pXgsdC

**On the business side, it was also a good day for McIlroy as a judge throws out Oakley's suit against Nike over Rory's depature. Alex Miceli reports for Golfweek.
