Amanda Balionis is not only a renowned golf reporter who grew up playing sports but also the wife of former NFL quarterback Bryn Renner.

CBS reporter Amanda Balionis, who is married to Bryn Renner, seems to have dropped her husband’s surname on social media, and hasn’t been seen with her wedding band on at recent golf events.

Since Northern Irish golfer Rory McIlroy made the surprise announcement that he was divorcing his wife, Erica Stoll, rumors have come out that he has a thing going with CBS reporter Amanda Balionis.

McIlroy and Balionis have been causing a stir on the PGA Tour and are the “talk of the links” after people noticed the closeness of their relationship.

Bryn Renner has not publicly stated a word, but because he is attached to Balionis, his name continues to appear in major headlines.

Bryn Renner is caught in the middle as speculations about a potential new romance between Rory McIlroy and Amanda Balionis, a sports journalist for CBS Sports, abound.

 

34-year-old Renner played quarterback in the NFL and coached quarterbacks at Florida International University, where the Panthers play in Conference USA, an FBS league.

Former NFL quarterback Bryn Renner may have been in the league at one point, but he never actually played in a regular-season NFL game.

Instead, he spent time on the practice or preseason squads of five different teams across three seasons.

From 2009 until 2013, Renner played quarterback for North Carolina before attempting to get into the NFL. After redshirting his rookie year and filling in as the backup in 2010, he was the Tar Heels’ regular starter for three seasons, via Wikipedia.

Before moving on to FIU, Bryn Renner had a brief tenure as head football coach at Austin Peay from 2016 to 2021.

It did not take long for Amanda Balionis to start wearing less while out in public.

CBS Sports reporter Amanda Balionis is getting praised for the outfit that she wore amid rumors of a divorce from her husband as well as dating rumors.

Amanda Balionis posted several pictures on her Instagram, one of which showed her rocking an Olivia Maxi dress in a floral print. The bottom left side of the dress had a massive split that showcased her entire left leg as she posed next to her friend.

Also in the post was Balionis partaking in a workout alongside others. The third picture was an alcoholic drink. The fourth picture was of her taking a picture of a yellow heart on the ground as she wore white sneakers.

The fifth picture had the reporter smiling in a selfie while on a bridge while holding coffee.

She posted one last photo of herself in her revealing dress while posing next to friends on what looks like a rooftop event.


Amanda Balionis is currently married to former NFL quarterback Bryn Renner after tying the knot with the former Baltimore Ravens player in 2022.

However, after she was shown on screen as CBS’ 19th hole reporter for The Masters, fans noticed she was no longer wearing a wedding ring.

Golf fans are intrigued by rumors that golf professional Rory McIlroy and CBS Sports reporter Amanda Balionis may be connected. And ever since, former NFL quarterback Bryn Renner, Balionis’ spouse, has come under examination.

McIlroy was spotted without his wedding ring while practicing at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, ahead of the start of the 2024 PGA Championship.

Golf fans have made some educated guesses based on footage from an interview she conducted with McIlroy following his victory in the Wells Fargo Championship on May 12 at Quail Hollow Golf Course in Charlotte.

Neither party has stated anything publicly.
