Rory McIlroy plays eight holes in 8under to pull away at Quail
CHARLOTTE, N.C. – When Xander Schauffele made eagle at Quail Hollow’s seventh hole Sunday, he held a two-shot lead over Rory McIlroy.

After his eagle on No. 10, McIlroy saved par on the next two holes after missing both the fairway and green, then birdied the par-3 13th after hitting his tee shot to 14 feet. Schauffele made bogeys on 12 and 13, and McIlroy gained another shot with a birdie at the par-4 14th. There was no let-up on 15, where McIlroy holed his greenside bunker shot for his second eagle of the back nine.
