Player Championship: Rory McIlroy, Scottie Scheffler in Reports as three stakes in early water in TPC Sawgrass

Rory McIlroy overcame a messy account from a teenager to get into the players of the players, because Scottie Scheffler strongly began to define the title.

McIlroy found only four sailors during the opening of the opening at TPC Sawgrass, where he mixed seven birds with two Bogeys to publish a five-point 67 and stay in contact with early leaders.

Former main champion Lucas Glover set up Clubhouse Target with opening 66, who later aligned JJ Spaun after a circle without any legs, with Camilo Villegas a three -way time after entering five holes in the period of seven holes to reach six below.

McIlroy shares fourth place with Billy Horschel, Min Woo Lee, Akshay Bhati and Max McGreevy, who still had two holes when the game was suspended at 19.34 by local time (11.34 hours GMT) due to darkness.

The English duo Aaron Rai and Laurie Canter are part of the Logam Two of the Theater after opening in the 68s, while Scheffler-IGRAGA with McIlroy and wanted to join Jack Nicklaus as the only triple winner of the players-he said at three to 69 years.

How ‘Uneven’ McIlroy moved into a quarrel

McIlroy started a dream when he was included with eight feet on the first and two strokes with 40 feet to use Par-Five next, just to score in a third of three, missed a 10-foot bird’s chance of a fourth and holes from the same distance to save the couple in the sixth.

The 35-year-old failed to get up and descend from the seventh green and cartorate his second wireless day, lowering him back to one before running a charge on the board by making an eight-foot bird in the ninth par-pet.

McIlroy turned eight to 10. And recovered from finding trees from the next teenager to Ptiči Par-Topica 11th, and the 2019 champion jumped within two of the leadership when he added another 12-foot bird at Parti 12.

The 2019 champion continued to recover from shooting to a teenager to keep nine without any nine and save the best for the par-four, where the amazing kick and running-with five iron-strokes set an eight-foot bird.

“I tried to be disciplined and strategic, I just didn’t do it well,” McIlroy Sky Sports said. “I didn’t hit a lot of shallows. I was trying to reduce him to the game, I didn’t do it very well, but every time I missed the fruitful path I was able to do something with him. I won’t be able to drive my happiness so the rest of the week.”

What else happened on the day of opening?

Scheffler mixed four birds with a lonely tumultuous in his introductory circle, while Xander Schauffele-did that star tribal-split to the level after a duel with double holes.

Glover blonded each of the last four holes at TPC Sawgrass to set the initial target at the club house, and Villegas briefly embarked on a solo lead on seven below the late carrier at his opening 66.

The congested water plaque sees 19 players separated two strokes, with Chandler Phillips among the two backwards after the extraordinary four -legged 48, which contained three eagles and a triple beep.

The Event opening of 70 Jordan Spieth contained two eagles in his top seven holes, while players Ryder Cup Ludvig Aberg, Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood started their one under the 71’s.

Former World No. 1 Justin Thomas needed a bird-ups finish to win six or short 78 and face the battle to reach a cut on Friday, while former Fedexcup champion Viktor Hovland sits a common point on the lead board after eight over 80.

Five players failed to finish their opening, and it will return at 8.50 hours of local time (12.50 pm GMT), and the second round began at 7.40 (11.40 hours GMT) as scheduled.
