Rory McIlroy produced a second consecutive bogey-free round at the Wells Fargo Championship to move just one shot behind leader Xander Schauffele heading into Sunday's final round. After an eventful opening-round 67 where he carded an eagle and six birdies to go with three bogeys and a double, the Northern Irishman has carded rounds of 68 on Friday and then 67 on Saturday. Schauffele finished one under for the day, and that shot is enough to keep him in the lead heading into Sunday.
A lot on the line on Sunday for the leading contenders as the sixth signature event of the season comes with a $20m purse while also serving as the PGA Tour players' final tune-up before next week's PGA Championship, live on Sky Sports. Watch Rory McIlroy in action at the Wells Fargo Championship and the PGA Championship this month live on Sky Sports. Early coverage continues from Quail Hollow on Sunday at 12.15pm, ahead of full coverage from 6pm.
