CRANS-MONTANA, Switzerland: Rory McIlroy continued his excellent recent form by firing a seven-under-par 63 in the second round of the European Masters on Friday to move one shot behind halfway leader Gavin Green in Switzerland.
The Northern Irishman came agonisingly close to lifting his maiden European Tour title at Crans-Montana as a 19-year-old in 2008, but missed a short par putt for victory before losing to unheralded Frenchman Jeff Lucquin in a playoff. Malaysian Green followed up his opening-round 65 with a 64 on Friday to boost his hopes of a first European Tour success.
"The altitude is similar to where I went to university in New Mexico, Albuquerque, it's a few thousand feet too. I'm pretty used to how altitude works," he said.
