Rory is brave as a lion – but rash too

REGRETS? Rory McIlroy has a couple but before he takes some enforced rest from the game to heal his injured wrist, he still has designs on a second Major title this weekend at the PGA Championship.

The US Open champion was last night expecting to make the halfway cut at Atlanta Athletic Club with one or two strokes to spare after a three-over-par second round 73 sent him to three over for the tournament.

McIlroy, though, could have already been on a plane home following his rash decision to blast his way out of trouble during his opening round on Thursday.
