Full leaderboard

Overnight leader Rory McIlroy said he would be heading to the driving range after falling away from the lead at the BMW Championship in St Louis.

The Masters champion began with a fine six-under-par in the opening round, but followed that with a one under-par 69 on Friday.

It means he is five shots behind Wyndham Clark, with whom he shared the lead after the first round.

Clark had a flawless round to finish on 12 under and leads the contest by one stroke over Gary Woodland.

The 32-year-old is the only player in the competition without a bogey in the first two rounds.

“I feel like conditions were pretty similar to yesterday,” McIlroy told the Golf Channel after his round.

“The wind was coming out of a different direction, but still very scorable. The greens are soft, maybe the ball’s got a little bit more run out on the fairways, but you’ll still see guys shooting pretty good scores today.

“I didn’t quite hit it as good as I did yesterday, so probably an afternoon on the range for me.

“I’m proud of how I just hung in there. A lot of good par putts on the back nine, especially. The only bogey I had was with a mistake on the par-five eighth hole, but I made some really good par saves coming in and that sort of kept me in it.”
