— -- PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. -- A gloomy, rainy Friday at PGA National turned even more so for Rory McIlroy, who didn't count on spending this weekend at his nearby home while the rest of the PGA Tour competed without him.

Even the best golfer in the world, the one who has looked all but invincible over the past seven months, has an occasional bad day, bad tournament.

And so it was for McIlroy, who made just a single birdie during the second round of the Honda Classic, shooting 74 to go with his opening 73. He played 36 holes in 7 over par and generally looked pretty average.
