McIlroy dominates Masters halfway stage

Rory McIlroy delivered a masterclass at Augusta National, birdying six of his last seven holes to pull away from the field.

His historic performance has left rivals like Patrick Reed and Shane Lowry trailing by significant margins as the tournament enters 'Moving Day'.

While McIlroy remains focused on his 'keep swinging' mantra, the golf world is abuzz with the possibility of a successful title defense.

However, several high-profile players, including Bryson DeChambeau and Jon Rahm, struggled to keep pace, with DeChambeau missing the cut after a disastrous triple-bogey on the 18th.
