Donald's Major misery continues
Luke Donald took a leaf out of Rory McIlroy's book at the US Open - but only by double-bogeying the last hole.
And after dropping three shots in the last two holes for a three-over-par 74 and seven over aggregate, England's world number one was not even in the top 60.After ten top-10 finishes in his last ten starts going all the way back to mid-February, Donald said: "I probably peaked too early.
"I certainly have not had my best golf this week. All facets have not been sharp enough, for whatever reason.
"There are not too many positives other than I get to go home a bit earlier tomorrow [Sunday]."
A bad drive cost him a shot on the 437-yard 17th and at the last his ball collected mud off the wet fairway - there had been two rain delays on Friday - and his six-iron approach went right and long into the lake.
On McIlroy's prospects of a first major, Donald said: "If he shoots anywhere near par he should have this in the bag.
"I said a couple of years ago he is one of the greatest talents in the game right now and you see him winning lots of times."
