McIlroy shares lead in Colorado
Print Edition
RORY McIlroy fired a 67 to seize a share of the lead with Jordan Spieth and Gary Woodland after the opening round of the BMW Championship was postponed on Thursday because of darkness.
Four-time major winner McIlroy rolled in four birdies in a five-hole stretch around the turn at the US$8 million PGA Tour event in Colorado. “It’s tricky. We’ve had a couple of days to adjust to the altitude, so that’s fine, but these greens have gotten so much firmer over the last 24 to 48 hours,” McIlroy said.
US Open champion Martin Kaymer is one of nine players tied at two under. He stands alongside Spain’s Sergio Garcia, Canada’s Graham DeLaet, Matt Every, Billy Horschel, Kevin Chappell, Russell Henley and Chesson Hadley.
Sweden’s Henrik Stenson is also two-under par and was on the 18th hole when play was suspended. He and the others were due to finish their rounds yesterday. Stenson was one of nine players still on the course when the horn sounded.
World No. 1 McIlroy is aiming for his fourth win of 2014 which includes major titles at the Open Championship and the PGA Championship.
