Golfer Rory McIlroy has been named as Ireland's richest sportsman after finishing at the top of the 2015 Sunday Times Rich List.
The 25-year-old, who is the world's number one player, has a personal fortune of £38m, the newspaper has revealed.
The figure puts him ahead of fellow golfer Padraig Harrington, who is valued at £37m, and former footballer and manager Roy Keane, who is worth £29m.
The figures reveal that McIlroy's wealth has grown by £10m in the last year, despite the cost of settling a legal dispute with his former management company, which set him back £25m.
