McIlroy in the mix as Schauffele takes lead at Quail Hollow

RORY MCILROY IS in a tie for second place after round one of the Wells Fargo Championship on the PGA Tour.

McIlroy is a three-time champion at Quail Hollow, having taken his first PGA title on the layout in 2010 and added crowns in 2015 and 2021. The run included putts from just over 17 feet at the 12th and 16 feet at the par-3 eighth plus three others under six feet, although he made his lone bogey off a tee shot way right into dirt at 18.

“A really bad drive after two super shots. I was really lucky one that they found it and two to get that kind of relief out of the absolute dead zone.” “I’m hitting the ball really well again, with some of the shots that I hit out there today with the driver, some of the iron shots were much better. I feel like putting is good.”

He responded with a birdie putt at 16 from just outside eight feet but went left off the 18th tee and missed a seven-foot par putt. McIlroy told reporters after his round that he has had conversations with the newly set up Transaction Committee, that the PGA Tour announced in a press release on Thursday.
