Champ Kind Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 By Bernie McGuire NEWCASTLE, Northern Ireland (Reuters) - World number one Rory McIlroy faces missing the cut for a second week in succession after posting a nine-over-par 80 in the opening round at his home event, the Irish Open, on Thursday. On a day of strong winds and intermittent showers, McIlroy failed to record a single birdie in a nightmare round at the par 71 Royal County Down course. "So, nothing went right and I was trying hard to birdie the last to try and break 80, but it just didn’t quite happen." Fellow PGA Championship and U.S. Open winner Martin Kaymer did only marginally better with an eight over par 79.
