Rory McIlroy's Club Toss Marks BMW Championship

Rory McIlroy expressed his frustration during the second round of the BMW Championship by tossing his driver into a water hazard after a poor tee shot on the 17th hole, reminiscent of his past outbursts on the course. Despite the club throw, he managed to finish the hole with a par and ended the day with a score of 1-under 71, placing him tied for 15th with a total of -3 going into the weekend. Adam Scott leads the tournament with a course-record 63, sitting at -13, while several others are vying for the top spots. McIlroy's erratic performance follows a series of near misses in recent tournaments, including the US Open and Olympics, where he expressed frustrations about his 'nearly man' status in golf. Notably, Hideki Matsuyama withdrew from the championship due to a lower-back injury, further reshaping the competition landscape. As the event progresses, McIlroy's ability to reclaim form will be crucial as he aims for a stronger finish amid the playoff challenges.
