McIlroy misses club, then the cut

NORTH BERWICK, Scotland — Rory McIlroy was waiting to get his second round underway on the 10th hole at the Scottish Open when a spectator wandered on to the tee, had a dig into the four-time major winner’s golf bag, and started taking swings with his 6-iron.

It wasn’t long before the interloper, who smelled of alcohol according to McIlroy’s playing partner, Jon Rahm, was ejected from the tournament. McIlroy didn’t last much longer. After an even-par round of 71, he missed the cut at the European Tour event on Friday.

He was 1 under for the tournament, 10 shots off the lead held by the top-ranked Rahm and Belgium’s Thomas Detry — after their rounds of 6-under 65 — and first-round leader Jack Senior (67). They were all on 11-under 131 overall.

U.S. SENIOR OPEN: In Omaha, Neb., Jim Furyk shot a 6-under 64, the best round in days at Omaha Country Club, to take a two-stroke lead over Stephen Ames. The 2003 U.S. Open champion and 17-time PGA Tour winner rebounded from an opening 72 to get to 4 under.

PGA: In Silvis, Ill., Luke List ran off seven birdies in an eight-hole stretch in the middle of his round and posted an 8-under 63. That gave him a one-shot lead at the John Deere Classic over Sebastian Munoz going into the weekend at the TPC Deere Run.

LPGA: In Sylvania, Ohio, Nasa Hataoka followed up her first-round 61 with a 2-under 69 in the Marathon LPGA Classic. Her lead was cut from four to two strokes, with American Mina Harigae second after her second straight bogey-free 66.
