McIlroy Sees Weekend Charge for a Second Open Claret Jug

Rory McIlroy survived to the weekend at The Open with a 67 in Round 2 to post 1-under, seven back of leader Lucas Herbert at Royal Birkdale. After opening with a 72 and greens still giving him trouble, he praised his driving—including a 377-yard, 11-foot birdie setup on the ninth—and said he’ll try to be more aggressive with the driver over the final rounds in hopes of a late charge for a second Claret Jug.

Vikings’ Day 2 Blueprint: Likeliest 49, 82, and 97 Picks

With three Day 2 picks (Nos. 49, 82, and 97), Minnesota's plan centers on upgrading safety, cornerback, wide receiver, and running back. At 49 the Vikings could target a corner or big-bodied receiver (with Denzel Boston and Chris Brazzell II among likely WR targets) or a safety; remaining corners such as McCoy, Terrell, Hood, and Ponds, and safeties like Stukes and McNeil-Warren, are in play. The 82 and 97 slots are viewed as prime for RB depth or another big WR, with Emmett Johnson, De’Zhaun Stribling, Bryce Lance, and Ted Hurst among options, plus safeties Bud Clark, Kilgore, and Wheatley and corners Davison Igbinosun, Malik Muhammad, Will Lee III, and Abney II also on the board. A late TE like Oscar Delp could surface if value falls; and McShay notes Day 2 RBs may be limited.

Masters 2026: Cut Looms at 4-over After Round 2

After Round 2 at Augusta, the Masters cut is 4-over par (148), trimming the field to the top 50 and ties for the weekend; 56 players remain in contention, with scores likely to shift if afternoon play stays tough. Notables: Jon Rahm sits at 148 on the cut, Bryson DeChambeau remains in danger, and Rasmus Hojgaard secured his spot with a birdie on 18 to reach 4-under. J.J. Spaun finished at 5 over, Robert MacIntyre recovered to 71 but an opening 80 doomed him, and all six amateurs appear headed for the fence. Historically, cut lines at the Masters have fluctuated between about 2-over and 6-over in recent years.
