When is Rory McIlroy playing at the PGA Championship? New tee times and groupings after severe weather delays
Severe weather delays at the PGA Championship have only added to Rory McIlroy’s frustration after he only just made it through to the weekend.
The reigning Masters champion arrived at Quail Hollow, a course he loves having won four times there in the past, this week with renewed confidence as the in-form favourite having finally claimed a Green Jacket at Augusta last month to become only the sixth player in golf history to complete a coveted career Grand Slam.
McIlroy, who is looking to win back-to-back majors for the second time, now has a huge mountain to climb to get close to contention for a third PGA Championship crown and first since 2014, with Venezuela’s Jhonattan Vegas the leader at halfway despite a disappointing last-gasp double bogey in a 70 on Friday that left him eight under.
