McIlroy tops leaderboard before storm

Rory McIlroy charged to the top of the leaderboard and Tiger Woods tumbled right off it before play had to be suspended in the USPGA Championship third round at Kiawah Island today.

McIlroy birdied five of the first eight holes – and saved a remarkable par after his ball stuck in a tree – but with a bogey on the ninth retreated to the clubhouse level with Vijay Singh and one ahead of Australian Adam Scott.
