McIlroy extends Honda Classic lead

Rory McIlroy has a two-shot lead heading into the fourth and final round of the Honda Classic in Florida.

The 24-year-old Northern Irishman hit a one-under 69 on Saturday to extend his advantage at the top of the leaderboard to two shots, having been one clear at the start of play of the third round.

"It's all about not making mistakes, it's about limiting the damage," BBC Sport quotes him as saying.

"You're going to make a few bogeys. If you limit those, hit fairways and greens, that's what I'm trying to do."

Russell Henley is second, while Scotland's Russell Knox is a shot behind the American in third place.
