Rory McIlroy cards horror quadruple bogey after fellow PGA Tour star makes a TWELVE at the RBC Canadian Open
RORY McIlLROY admitted early this week that he's been struggling to stay motivated after winning The Masters and achieving the career grand slam. And his woes continued during the second round at the RBC Canadian Open as he carded a horror quadruple bogey during the early stages. 2 Rory McIlroy's poor form continued as he carded a horror quadruple bogey during the early stages of his second round - he's almost certainly going to miss the cut in Ontario 2 Matthieu Pavon carded a horror 12 on his opening hole of his second round at TPC Toronto McIlroy struggled in his opening round after a one-over total, and his second round got off to a disastrous start when he shot 8 on the par four fifth hole. The Masters champion flared his tee shot into the left rough — but it went from bad to worse when he tugged his next shot out of bounds. His second ball flew the green and McIlroy butchered the hole around the dancefloor, racking up a card-killer of a score. At the time of writing, the projected cut is two under par- with McIlroy currently an eye-watering seven shots outside the weekend number in Ontario. READ MORE ON GOLF The last time he missed a cut came at the 2024 Open at Royal Troon last July. The Northern Irishman hasn't finished outside the top 25 in back-to-back events since he went MC-T47 at the 2023 Masters and Wells Fargo. But he's almost certain to miss the cut at TPC Toronto after a T47 in his last event played at the PGA Championship. Elsewhere, Matthieu Pavon carded a shocking 12 on the par 4 10th hole in Canada after starting on the back-nine. Most read in Golf The Frenchman followed up the horror 12 with back to back birdies at TPC Toronto. Pavon's unwanted 12 is just the second of that number on the PGA Tour this season.
