Northern Irish golf ace Rory McIlroy hit five bogeys and double-bogeyed the par-three 13th to finish on a disappointing two over par, while Jim Furyk finished on three over, The BBC reported.

Kaymer held a two-shot lead over Watson following the first round on Tuesday after carding a six-under-par round of 65. The German hit four birdies and four bogeys in a level-par second round before holding his nerve in the play-off.
Masters champion Watson hit a run of birdies on the 14th, 15th and 16th holes to take a two-shot lead, but a wayward tee shot at the next hole hampered his chances as he dropped a shot on the par-five 17th.
