Rory McIlroy's competitive juices flowing again following third round 64 at British Open

Rory McIlroy admitted his competitive juices were flowing again after a superb 64 lifted him into contention for a first win of the year in the British Masters.

At the start of the week McIlroy insisted he was unconcerned about the prospect of just the second winless season of his career, a season which will come to an early end next week.
