Rory McIlroy insists he has got the game to reclaim the Claret Jug - and that he can't worry about Open leader Cameron Smith.
Aussie Smith tamed the Old Course at St Andrews with a sizzling eight under-par 64 before McIlroy responded with 68 to lie in third place, three shots behind the halfway pace-setter.
The Ulsterman punched the air after a brilliant Road Hole birdie that keeps him within touching distance of Smith, who has yet to claim a major title.
