McIlroy’s stunning shot out of the trees
Wow. Unbelievable golf.
Rory McIlroy cracks a grin and laughs with his caddy after playing one of the great shots out of the trees on the 7th.
Would have been better if the putt landed but not to be. He and DeChambeau take pars.

5th hole: Pars apiece for the leaders
McIlroy, fresh off a couple of birdies, hits his drive well right on the par-four 5th.
He manages to find a gap through the trees and get his ball up near the green.
It’s a nice chip from McIlroy and a cracking putt from about three metres that saves par.
Meanwhile, DeChambeau misses a birdie putt and settles for a par on the way back.

McIlroy is back into the lead
A remarkable start to the final round already.
Rory McIlroy with some major head noise after a nasty double bogey on the first put him one behind Bryson DeChambeau.
The American sneaks in a birdie on the 2nd but bogeys the 3rd and 4th. Ouch.
Meanwhile, McIlroy manages two birdies on the 3rd and 4th. A couple of really solid putts that will get his confidence going.
He now has a three shot lead.
