The Morning Score: Friday

A win for Kenny Egan in London, Rors and G-Mac in the mix and Pat Fenlon’s job prospects. It’s all here, baby.

1. #GOLF Australia made a solid start to today’s foursomes at the Golf World Cup to maintain their two-shot cushion. But Ireland are in second at the Mission Hills resort on Hainan island.

Having finished yesterday’s fourballs ahead at 11 under par, Brendan Jones and Richard Green were three under through seven holes of their second round but Rory McIlroy and Graeme McDowell are perfectly placed.

We’ll have details soon.
