US PGA Championship golf: Rory McIlroy makes blistering start as Tiger Woods toils in first round
Rory McIlroy made a glorious start to the 104th US PGA Championship as a five-under par opening round of 65 saw him claim the early lead at Southern Hills Country Club in Oklahoma. The Northern Irishman – winner of the Wanamaker Trophy in 2012 and 2014 – enjoyed six birdies and two bogeys with his putter as hot as the steamy Tulsa sunshine.
