PGA Tour — Rory McIlroy added a bogey at the 18th to two frustrating bogey sixes to lose momentum in the weather delayed Memorial at Muirfield Village.

The world No 3 again putted well and had five birdies in a two under 70 that could have been a few shots better had he not bogeyed the par-five seventh and 11th and the dropped another shot at the 18th for a 70 that left him tied 21st, on nine under.

The four time major winner is five shots behind leaders William McGirt (64), Gary Woodland (69) and Matt Kuchar (70), who head the pack by one on 14 under par after another stop-start day in Ohio.

With 20 players were separated by four shots and with McIlroy in a nine man group that’s five behind, anything could happen on Sunday.

However, it’s likely that McIlroy will need one of his extraordinary final rounds to win for the second outing running in what is his last start before the US Open.

World No 1 Jason Day, a Muirfield Village member who has never finished in the top 25 at the Memorial, double bogeyed the 18th for a 68 but is still just three off the pace on 10 under.

As for Jordan Spieth, a 74 left him 10 behind.
