Rory McIlroy finished with a superb eagle to move two shots off the lead heading into the final day of the BMW PGA Championship at Wentworth.<\/b><\/p>\n
Northern Ireland’s world number two made a three on the par-five 18th to stay in contention with a three-under 69 leaving him on 11 under.<\/p>\n
Spain’s Manuel Elvira and Italy’s Filippo Celli share the lead after both made birdies on the final hole to leave them 13 under.<\/p>\n
But there is a congested leaderboard with 20 players within four strokes of the lead.<\/p>\n
Alejandro Del Rey, JJ Spaun and Johannes Veerman are one shot behind with an exciting finish in store on Sunday.<\/p>\n
McIlroy is attempting to win a record-equalling eighth Race to Dubai title and can boost his hopes by securing the second Wentworth title of his career.<\/p>\n
“There are a lot of people around the leaders,” he said after another round in blustery conditions.<\/p>\n
“I think the conditions over the last couple of days are the reason why no-one has got away from the pack, just because it has played so tricky and difficult.<\/p>\n
“I’ll probably try not to look at the leaderboards on the front nine, and if I need to play a little bit more aggressively on the back, I’ll do it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
