Northern Irishman finished in tie for 11th, with Shane Lowry tied for 13th.
RORY McILROY HAD another eventful round at the BMW Championship at Castle Pines, where he shot a 71 to leave himself on six under overall, in a tie for 11th – and six strokes behind winner Keegan Bradley.
The Northern Irishman had to play without a driver for the second half of his round after accidentally snapping the club in two while leaning on it bending down to put in his tee in the ground at the ninth hole. He was not allowed to replace it under PGA rules.— NUCLR GOLF August 25, 2024 Advertisement The world No 3 then hit a wayward shot with his ball coming to rest on a bank just above the water.
His scoring was consistent over the championship, with 70s on Thursday and Saturdays and 71s on Friday and Sunday. Shane Lowry also carded a 71 today to finish just one shot behind McIlroy on five-under. The Offaly man ended up in a tie for 13th. Both McIlroy and Lowry are among the top 30 in the FedExCup standings after the BMW Championship and qualify for the Tour Championship at East Lake next week, and maintain their hopes of a FedExCup title.
