- Rory McIlroy celebrated his 30th birthday with a three-under-par 68 in the third round of the Wells Fargo Championship on Saturday to move within two shots of the leaders at the weather-hit event in Charlotte, North Carolina.
McIlroy, who could have had an even better day had his putting been dialled in, put together four birdies against a bogey to move to nine under as fans offered up birthday greetings on the stormy day. England’s Justin Rose is in sixth spot on eight-under with compatriot Paul Casey tied for seventh a shot further back.McIlroy, who had an opening 66 before a poor finish on Friday left him five behind, collected three birdies on the back nine after missing several early putting opportunities.When play resumed an hour later, the two-time Quail Hollow winner three-putted, slowing his momentum. But he rebounded with consecutive birdies on the 14th and 15th holes.
