Amanda Balionis took a well-deserved break at the 2024 US Open.
The veteran CBS Sports reporter headed to the Hamptons this weekend amid speculation that she was dating Rory McIlroy.
The Northern Irishman, who suffered a humiliating collapse during the final holes of the tournament at Pinehurst on Sunday, called off his divorce from wife Erica Stoll earlier this week.
The shock came less than a month after he initially filed paperwork against the mother of his three-year-old daughter.
Meanwhile, Balionis was seen relaxing on the beach in a snap, posted to her Instagram Story over the weekend.

In North Carolina, meanwhile, McIlroy suffered a heartbreaking loss in his quest for a fifth major title, sending his best chance to end a decade-long wait slipping through his fingers.
Thirteen years after winning his first US Open and his first major at Congressional, McIlroy looked ready to finally get back into the winner’s circle when he led by two shots with five holes to play.
However, the athlete astonishingly missed par by two feet on the sixteenth and by less than four yards on the eighteenth.

“Erica and I have realized that our best future was together as a family,” McIlroy said last week
It allowed Bryson DeChambeau to claim his second US Open title on an extraordinary final day in North Carolina.
McIlroy certainly has a lot on his mind, evidenced by the fact that he made a rare statement about his personal life ahead of the tournament.
‘There have been rumors about my personal life lately, and that’s a shame. Responding to every rumor is a fool’s game,” McIlroy said told The guard.
“Over the past few weeks, Erica and I have come to the realization that our best future was together as a family. Fortunately, we have resolved our differences and are looking forward to a new beginning.”
The former world number one, whose career earnings on the PGA Tour total nearly $87 million, first met upstate New York native Erica at the 2012 Ryder Cup while working for the PGA of America.
They started dating just months after he abruptly called off his engagement to tennis star Caroline Wozniacki in 2014.
