McIlroy’s wild ride leads him on fringe of PGA contention

Associated Press  

TULSA, Okla. — The brilliant Northern Irishman who set the record for largest margin of victory in the PGA Championship a decade ago will need to mount his biggest comeback Sunday if he wants to win a third Wanamaker Trophy. First-round leader Rory McIlroy, whose stellar start turned into a stunning slide down the leaderboard Saturday, offset four birdies with three bogeys, a double and a triple during his wild ride around Southern Hills. “I think you’ve got to go out and get it,” said second-round leader Will Zalatoris, who shot 73 on Saturday to finish three shots back with Matt Fitzpatrick at 6 under. There was Tiger Woods, who squeaked into the weekend and shot 79 on Saturday before withdrawing, and Zalatoris, who made four bogeys on his first nine before a strong finish kept him within range of Pereira’s 9-under target. His tournament should have been over right there, but the blowup came during a juncture at Southern Hills when nobody seemed to want to win: Zalatoris was struggling on the front amid the cold shifting winds; Pereira made four bogeys during a five-hole stretch; Justin Thomas headed backward after opening with consecutive 67s; and Watson began to give strokes away on the back nine, closing with three bogeys over his final four holes.
