Rory McIlroy makes move at Wells Fargo Championship
Rory McIlroy’s Round 2 highlights from Wells Fargo
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Rory McIlroy shot a second-round 66 at the Wells Fargo Championship and joked about needing to plug the coordinates of Quail Hollow Club into his GPS for the weekend.
RELATED:
He’s a member here and a two-time winner of the Wells Fargo, so he hardly needs the help, but the fact remains he’s been having a hard time finding his way to the money rounds on the PGA TOUR.
“It was better,” McIlroy said after making six birdies, one bogey. “I was really happy about my iron play coming in here, felt like I really found something last week. I didn t get a chance to show it (Thursday) because I wasn t finding the fairway very much, but today, just having some more opportunities to hit good iron shots and give myself birdie chances, I was able to show it a bit and it was nice.”
Keith Mitchell rebounds from bent putter fiasco
Keith Mitchell reaches in two to set up birdie at Wells Fargo
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Keith Mitchell briefly held the lead in the first round of the Wells Fargo Championship before a late double-bogey left him with a 4-under-par 67 on Thursday.
It was a good round, not a great one, but in relative terms it was a whole lot better than the last scorecard he signed, a final-round 82 at the Valspar Championship outside Tampa on Sunday.
How to explain the drastic turnaround?

“My putter was bent on Sunday,” Mitchell said. “It was two degrees upright and a degree or so with too much loft which effectively is like six degrees of loft which is not what you need.”

Phil Mickelson thought he played well in Round 1 on Thursday at the Wells Fargo Championship; in Round 2 he said he wasnât doing enough high-level thinking en route to a 4-over 75.
âI just wasnât sharp,â he said, later providing an example from his water-bound tee shot on No. 14. âI stepped in there, I was going to hit a draw, standing over it, Iâm going to hit a fade and I just made an awful swing, lunged forward on it.â
Mickelson scrambled his way to par on 14, and his 3-under 139 keeps him in the field for the weekend at Quail Hollow Golf Club in Charlotte.
