(Reuters) - Rory McIlroy almost missed the cut at the Travelers Championship on Friday after his foot slipped while playing his approach shot to the final hole, leading to an unexpected bogey in Cromwell, Connecticut.

But while the Northern Irishman eventually advanced to the weekend without a stroke to spare, another former world number one, Jason Day, headed home early for the second week in a row after signing for the wrong score.
