19year old Rory McIlroy fired a second round 68 to sit 5 shot's behind surprise leader,Y E Yang from South Korea,after the second round of the Honda Classic at Palm Beach Gardens in Florida.
Once again Rory showed how cool he is when the going get's tough.Starting at the 10th he dropped shot's at the 12th and 15th holes to sit on the cut line at 2 over par.
A birdie at the 18th set him up for the front 9 and he quickly made birdie's at the 1st,3rd,and 4th holes to put himself back in contention for the weekend with a 68 to go with his 70 on Thursday.
Darren Clarke looked to be joining him in joint 13th until he took a triple bogey 6 at the dangerous 17th hole.Clarke need's to win this week if he has any chance of making the Master's.
