AUGUSTA, Georgia (Reuters) -Rory McIlroy overcame a turbulent start and reached the turn with a four-shot lead over Bryson DeChambeau, Justin Rose and Ludvig Aberg as the Northern Irishman closed in on a career Grand Slam of golf's four majors at the Masters on Sunday.
World number two McIlroy, who began the day two shots clear of DeChambeau, saw his lead vanish after one hole but went on to cover the first nine in one-under-par 35 that left him at 13 under on the week.
