“What’s the right thing to say when that happens?” I ask. “What do you want to hear?”
“Nothing,” he says. “The best thing is to say nothing. I didn’t even send him a text because I knew I’d see him here and just gave him a hug: ‘Hard luck. You got f**ked’ — which I think he did. But I’d rather be him, putting himself in a winning position all the time, than me finishing 12th.

Good afternoon. Following near misses at US Open, the Olympics and the Irish Open this year, Rory McIlroy has continued his run of putting himself in contention heading into the final round at the BMW PGA Championship. The question is, will he be able to get over the line at Wentworth?
The Holywood man sits three shots off leader Matteo Manassero after a bogey-free 66 on Saturday, as does 2021 winner Billy Horschel.
Manassero has been in sensational form, however, his nine-under 63 moving him to 18 under. The 31-year-old won this tournament as a 19-year-old in 2013 – a year before McIlroy’s title – but his career subsequently went into serious decline and he dropped as low as 1,805th in the official world rankings.
Finishing third in the Irish Open at Royal County Down a week ago, Verona native Manassero has moved up to 101st and success here would be a remarkable achievement.
