Rory McIlroy Tightens Race to Dubai Grip With Second-Round 69

McIlroy shot a three-under second-round 69 at the DP World Tour Championship to reach nine under, three behind leader Hojgaard in the United Arab Emirates. Mixing six birdies and three bogeys, he said he "had to battle," but was "pretty pleased." Holding a 767-point rankings lead, only Hatton and Penge can deny a fourth straight Race to Dubai crown.
