McIlroy leads pack at Malaysia Open
Rory McIlroy birdied his final hole of the day to move two strokes clear yesterday in the weather-hit Malaysian Open, while Masters champion Charl Schwartzel earlier narrowly made the cut for the third round.
Overcoming his recent collapse at the Masters, Northern Ireland's McIlroy moved to 12-under par after nine holes of the third round.
Only a dozen players completed their third round after rain and lightning disrupted hours of play at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club for the second straight day.
Schwartzel just made the cut earlier yesterday when he carded 1-under 71 in the second round to finish on 144. The South African ended the day at 2-under through 11 holes of the third round. Top-ranked Martin Kaymer is at 9-under after 15 holes, moving up from 25th to sharing fifth place with Felipe Aguilar.
But it was Frenchman Gregory Bourdy who dominated the third round with seven birdies against a lone bogey through 14 holes. He and Italian teenager Matteo Manasserro were tied for second. Defending champion Noh Seung-yul of South Korea finished on 145, missing the cut by one stroke.
In San Antonio, PGA tour rookie Brendan Steele double-bogeyed the par-4 15th to lose a two-stroke lead at the Texas Open, then finished with a par-72 to fall into a rare seven-way tie atop the leaderboard at 3 under on Friday.
