McIlroy eyes Tour title as Donald slips back

The European Tour title race looks set to go right to the wire after Rory McIlroy produced a fabulous nine-hole stretch today, just as Luke Donald was losing his way.

By coming home in just 30 shots for a six-under-par 66, McIlroy, who has to win the Dubai World Championship to have a chance of the circuit's number one spot, climbed into third place only two behind Swede Peter Hanson.
