Solid McIlroy impressed as Spieth on move

PGA Championship play in the second round at Whistling Straits was brought to an abrupt and premature halt on Friday night as thunder and lightning storms forced a suspension in play with Australia’s Jason Day and Matt Jones leading the final major of the year.

Play was suspended for the day with the plan to resume play at 7am local time (1pm Irish) on Saturday.

Day and Jones have four and six holes respectively to complete in their second rounds but will sleep on a one-shot shared lead over England’s Justin Rose, who was playing his final hole when the hooter sounded to call play to a halt.
