Rory McIlroy delivers a collector's item to stay in the hunt for a fifth major title at Brookline

Rory McIlroy delivered a collector’s item of a double-bogey fist pump to keep himself firmly in the hunt for a fifth major title at the US Open.

McIlroy’s second shot landed in knee high fescue and he took three shots to hack the ball onto the green before producing a magnificent save with a 23-feet putt.
