McGinley bows out of Royal County Down

Paul McGinley has been forced to withdraw from the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open, complaining of a back injury. He became the 7th player to pull out of this weekend's proceedings. 

The former Ryder Cup captain carded a three over par for the weekend, 10 shots off the leader, Søren Kjeldsen.

Kjeldsen leads the way on seven-under-par despite the worsening conditions, which saw major winners Rory McIlroy and Martin Kaymer miss the cut on Friday.

The Dane hasn’t won in six years but holds a two shot lead from Rafa Cabrera-Bello and Maximilian Kieffer, who carded a course record 65 on Saturday.
