It's not easy following up a 63, but Brendan Steele did what he could Friday, posting a 2-under 70. His lead over Jhonattan Vegas stretched to two strokes.
Whatever momentum Rory McIlroy thought he had disappeared. The world No. 3 shot a 1-under 71, making just two putts outside five feet.

"Just very frustrating. It's sort of been like this since I've been back," McIlroy said, per PGATour.com. "Just need to see some putts going in the hole, get some confidence. I think it's more mental than anything else.
"Whenever you don't see anything go in, it makes it harder and harder each and every hole that goes by."
