The Irishman had a fine day at Travelers and is back in contention for victory

Rory Mcllroy hit six-under 64 in the second round of the Travelers Championship and is back in the picture again.

The 34-year-old sits tied for 10th at eight under par, seven strokes behind leaders Denny McCarthy and Keegan Bradley.

Mcllroy, who started at the 10th hole, had made five birdies at the turn and three more in the next six holes.

“After the hole-in-one on eight yesterday, to make double bogey there today it’s sort of like may as well have just made two threes,” he said.

“Overall it was just better, way better on the greens and I played a good round of golf to get myself back in the tournament today.”
