MEDINAH, Ill. – Rory McIlroy said twice Friday afternoon that he hasn’t had his best stuff through 36 holes at the BMW Championship.
And yet he finds himself 8 under par, just four off the pace set by Hideki Matusyama.
To hear McIlroy tell it, he’s been faking it ‘til he makes it through two days here at Medinah. But he finally flashed some of his best stuff late Friday and agrees more could be around the corner.
“That’s how it feels,” he said.
McIlroy backed up an opening 69 with a 5-under 67 on Day 2 to move into a tie for 11th outside Chicago.
