BMW PGA Championship: Rory McIlroy trails, Rd. 3 Tee Times

The BMW PGA Championship is at the halfway mark as the DP World Tour takes on Wentworth Golf Club.

Among those still in contention is Rory McIlroy, who shot a 4-under 68 to sit at 9-under overall. He is four shots behind the leader, Matthew Baldwin, at 13-under.

Friday was not as eventful for the Northern Irishman, but it did not require any excitement. He made two birdies and a bogey on the front, then came home in 34 with three birdies.

Baldwin followed up his 65 with a 6-under 66. He made five birdies on the front nine to turn in 30 shots and looked unstoppable. A bogey at the par-4 11th brought down the momentum, but two more birdies at 15 and 17 allowed him to maintain the lead.

He holds a two-shot lead over Niklas Norgaard, who shot a 5-under 67 to sit at 11-under overall. Antoine Rozner had the low round of the day at 7-under 65 to sit at 10-under and three shots off the lead.

A handful of players finished their second rounds on Saturday morning, and the third round began shortly after. Check out the tee times for Moving Day in England.
