Rory McIlroy struggles on back nine at US Open, falls out of contention

Rory McIlroy experienced a challenging Saturday at the U.S. Open, where he struggled on the back nine. McIlroy, currently the world No. 2, recorded five bogeys in the latter half of his round and finished at three over par, which knocked him out of contention. Earlier this season, he performed well at the majors, with a victory at the Masters and a seventh-place tie at the PGA Championship. McIlroy's performance at the U.S. Open highlights the volatility of tournament play as he seeks to regain form in future events.
