Rory McIlroy saw his hopes of a third Quail Hollow victory disappear after a treacherous run of holes during his final round at the Wells Fargo Championship.
The world No 4 came into the final round two strokes off the pace and remained that distance behind the lead until a three-putt par at the seventh sparked a dramatic change in fortune.
McIlroy under-cooked a chip from off the eighth green and left his birdie putt way short of the target, before a three-putt bogey from 45 feet at the ninth saw him reach the turn over par.
Worse was to come at the par-five next, where McIlroy recovered from hooking his tee shot towards the trees by firing his second shot just short of the putting surface.
McIlroy saw a relatively simple chip towards the flag stop abruptly on the fringe and roll back down the slope, with his next effort producing an almost identical result.

The Northern Irishman eventually pitched onto the green at the third time of asking - his fifth shot - before two-putting from five feet to card an ugly double-bogey seven and drop seven off the lead.
