Rory McIlroy, at even par, is not someone to discount either. Without his best approach game, the winner of the recent AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am ranked second in Driving Distance and fifth in SG: Off-the-Tee. Like Morikawa, it was his approach game that let him down but should he maintain his proximity to the lead on Friday, he becomes a serious threat when the rain leaves but soft greens remain.
