Rory McIlroy trails by 3 at BMW PGA; here are Round 4 tee times

Rory McIlroy posted a 6-under 66 on Saturday, a round that featured four birdies and an eagle on the par-5 4th hole. Yet, the Ulsterman trails Matteo Manassero by three heading into Sunday’s final round.

McIlroy sits in a tie for second with Billy Horschel at 15-under par.

“I played well. Another solid day,” McIlroy assessed.

“My lowest score of the week, no bogeys. Just trying to keep up with Matteo, as well. I know I’m going to need another low one tomorrow to try to catch him.”

Manassero shot a 9-under 63 on Saturday, the lowest score of the week. He did so in wet conditions, which forced the DP World Tour to enact preferred lies during the third round. No wonder why Manassero, Horschel, and McIlroy combined to make 20 birdies and two eagles on Saturday.

“I did feel like we [fed off each other midway through] the round,” Manassero said.

“It’s great, guys like Rory and Billy, and the atmosphere at Wentworth; it’s such a fantastic show. Of course, you feed from that. You feed from playing with great players. So it was one of those really nice atmospheres.”
