McIlroy falls into Jack’s trap

Rising star Rory McIlroy became a victim of Jack Nicklaus’s famous “Bear Trap” in the first round of the Honda Classic in Florida today.

The 19-year-old was two under par and only two strokes behind Australian Robert Allenby when he ran up a triple bogey six on the short 17th at the Nicklaus-designed Champion Course in Palm Beach Gardens.
