McIlroy posts a second-round 67 to move to eight underBrooks Koepka slams LA Country Club course after shooting 69
In late May, Rory McIlroy departed Oak Hill and the US PGA Championship having conceded he arrived at the major carrying little hope of success. This was quite an admission from an individual who has pursued trophies as routine since childhood.
What a difference three weeks make. “I started thinking about winning this thing when I came here on Monday,” said a revitalised McIlroy. A second round of 67 at the LA Country Club, added to day one’s 65, leaves him eight under par and perfectly positioned for a tilt at major number five. McIlroy needs no reminder that he won his last of golf’s big four in August of 2014.
