McIlroy Tumbles Out of Canadian Open with a 78. Champ Takes 2-Shot Lead Into the Weekend

  • After recording an 8-over 78 in the second round of the Canadian Open, Rory McIlroy failed to advance to the weekend, tying for 149th place on the leaderboard.
  • McIlroy's struggles stemmed from hitting only four of 14 fairways and ranking 152nd in strokes gained off the tee, with an errant drive leading to a quadruple-bogey on the fifth hole.
  • The Canadian Open, held on the rain-affected North Course at TPC Toronto, serves as the final tournament leading up to next week’s challenging U.S. Open at Oakmont.
  • McIlroy expressed his concern about his performance, admitting that scoring as poorly as he did is frustrating, and highlighted the importance of improving his accuracy off the tee at Oakmont.
  • Meanwhile, Cameron Champ leads the Canadian Open at 12-under par after rounds of 62 and 68 without bogeys, taking a two-stroke advantage into the weekend.
