Grinds out T2 finish at API McIlroy closed with a two-under 70 on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational to finish in a share of second place. Impact McIlroy was on everyone's radar this week going into perhaps his best course on Tour in Bay Hill. He was coming off two straight subpar finishes, but was able to get himself into contention once again. It never really felt like McIlroy had his best stuff all week, but after four birdies in a five hole stretch, he stood on 14 tee with a one stroke lead. He'll be disappointed with bogeys at 14 and 15, but this should certainly boost his confidence going to TPC Sawgrass next week.
