Rory McIlroy overcame a moment of rage to race into the clubhouse lead at the 122nd US Open.
The Holywood golfer - last week's winner of the Canadian Open - got his latest major assault up and running with a brilliant first-round score of three-under-par.
McIlroy's round was punctuated with some stellar iron play and putting, and a stroke of bad luck at the fifth hole that saw the 33-year-old completely lose his cool.
