Earthquake fails to topple McIlroy

RORY McILROY’S legs were shaking like jelly when a earth tremor shook Hong Kong late on day two of the UBS Hong Kong Open.

McIlroy was just about to tee-off from the 14th when the tremor, measuring 2.8 on the Richter Scale, shook the China Special Administrative Region. It was traced to Shenzhen just 10 miles away on the China mainland.

“My legs just started shaking like jelly over my tee shot,” said McIlroy.
