After Rory McIlroy had a great day in the first round of The Players Championship 2024, things went anything but well for the Northern Irishman on the second day. With a poor round of 73, McIlroy dropped back to T14 and has his incredible par save to thank for the fact that the gap to leader Wyndham Clark is not even wider.

The start of the second round at The Players Championship 2024 was an up-and-down affair for Rory McIlroy. The Northern Irishman recorded three birdies and three bogeys on the first six holes before his first par of the day followed on the seventh hole. Of course, McIlroy accomplished this in inimitable style. Rory McIlroy’s tee shot found the pine straw. Still, he would go on to save par.

Despite this outstanding shot, Rory McIlroy cannot be satisfied with his second round. The 34-year-old went straight to the range after his round of 73.
