McIlroy (74) barely makes cut at TPC Boston

NORTON, Mass. – Rory McIlroy straddled the cut line coming home Saturday in the second round of the Deutsche Bank Championship, but he assured himself two more rounds with a closing birdie.

The world No. 1 struggled to a 3-over-par 74 in the second leg of the FedEx Cup Playoffs and finds himself tied for 59th, 14 shots off the lead.

“I’m rusty,” McIlroy said. “I think it shows that I haven't really played much competitive golf. When I've given myself opportunities to get it close, then I'm not making putts.
