Donald struggles at Congressional

As Rory McIlroy continued his long wait to resume the US Open – he was not teeing off in the third round until 3.50pm – Luke Donald reeled off the pars on his return to Congressional.

After making the halfway cut with nothing to spare at four over par – a massive 15 strokes behind runaway leader McIlroy – the world number one’s hopes of at least continuing his top-10 streak were nose-diving.
