With a thunderous drive down the middle of the fairway, Rory McIlroy began the final round of the British Open with a commanding lead Sunday and a keen sense of history. McIlroy knew that a victory at Royal Liverpool would give him the third leg in a career Grand Slam. Then, after sticking his approach to 15 feet, he rolled in the birdie putt to take his score to 17 under - just two shots away from matching Tiger Woods' scoring record for any major in relation to par. Barring an unprecedented collapse, he would head to Augusta National next spring looking to join Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan, Gary Player and Gene Sarazen as the only players to win all four of golf's biggest events.
