Rory McIlroy has it all to do to drag himself back into contention on day two of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.

He tees off at 8.20 this morning from level par, and eight shots adrift of joint leaders Daniel Im and Benjamin Herbert.

Paul Dunne will look to build on his opening round of 67 when he tees off at 8.10.

Graeme McDowell also starts from 5-under, but he’s not out until lunchtime.
