US Open winner Rory McIlroy says his relationship with top-ranked tennis player Caroline Wozniacki can help him become golf's world No. 1.
McIlroy said he and Wozniacki "definitely spur each other on and it's very healthy." "She's No. 1 in the world and I've got a major and we sort of both want what each other have."
The 22-year Northern Irishman said he was impressed with Wozniacki's dedication, and can learn from her work ethic.
"You know, he has something I'm looking for and I have something he's looking for," Wozniacki told reporters at US Open.
"He wants to be No. 1. So it's good to have something on each other."
