So will Rory McIlroy continue his upwardly mobile momentum in the wake of that birdie on 18 last night? He’s admitted that he only walked in the putt because he thought he’d left it short, which was honest of him but kinda ruined the mic-drop effect; either way, though, it’s given the 2011 champion a huge boost as he pursues that elusive fifth major. He’s out early this morning, and his first drive down 10 is a thing of club-twirling perfection. His playing partners Xander Schauffele and the world number one Scottie Scheffler also split the fairway. It’s going to be an exciting morning!
