McDowell on top as storms hit

Graeme McDowell now refers to Rory McIlroy as “The Man” – but his own talent was there for all to see again at Castle Stuart near Inverness today.

While McIlroy rests up before trying next week for the first US Open-Open double since Tiger Woods in 2000, McDowell fired a second-round 64 to set up the possibility of a second Barclays Scottish Open title in four years.
