After the second round in Ohio, Rory McIlroy is back in the Memorial Tournament mix.

At the Memorial Tournament, Rory McIlroy fired a second-round four-under-par 68 to regain the lead.

The Northern Irishman finished at four under overall in Ohio, making six birdies and two bogeys. His second-round performance was boosted by a birdie-birdie finish.

After shooting a six-under 66 to reach eight under for the competition, American Justin Suh is in the lead at the halfway point.

Hideki Matsuyama, the 2021 Masters champion from Japan, shot a seven-under 65 to go one stroke back at seven under.

Xander Schauffele, an American, had a strong second round as well, recording seven birdies and just one bogey (on his first hole) to sign for a six-under 66 and move to one under for the tournament.

American Jordan Spieth and European Ryder Cup captain Luke Donald are both at three under par overall. Tyrrell Hatton and Matt Fitzpatrick, who are also Englishmen, will also play in the last two rounds after making the cut.

Fitzpatrick, who won his first major championship at the US Open last year, had a four-under 68 to tie for the lead with Hatton, who sits at two under after two consecutive 71s.
