Rory McIlroy thrust himself into contention for glory at the Turkish Airlines Open on Saturday with a five-under par round of 67, putting him one shot back from joint-leaders Jaco van Zyl and Victor Dubuisson.

The Northern Irishman built momentum brilliantly on the back nine, finishing up on 15-under par.

McIlroy went eagle-birdie on 13 and 14 to pick up three shots quickly. Here’s a look at his remarkable second shot into the par-five 13th, per the European Tour Twitter feed, which helped McIlroy to his third successive round of 67:
