Rafael Cabrera Bello, known only as Rafa to everyone on tour has shot 64 65 in his last 2 rounds and if it wasn't for his opening 73 he'd be well ahead, as it is the streaky Spaniard is T1 with Henrik Stenson who came to life late in his round to shot 68, both are at -14.
Rory looked for all the world like he'd be in the lead as well until he double bogeyed 12 and 13 to fall to -9, a late birdie got him to -10 so he is spotting the leaders 4 shots.
Justin Rose is 3rd after his 68, -11, while Rory is joined by 3 others at -10, including Thorbjorn Olesen and Victor Dubuisson.

On a tough day that only rewarded the best shots, Michelle Wie holed out for eagle with a pitching wedge on her way to a 5-under 67, -5 139, that moved her up high enough on the leaderboard Friday at the CME Group Tour Championship to get into position for a $1 million bonus.
The leaders are Carlota Ciganda of Spain who took advantage of a putting lesson from Spanish great Jose Maria Olazabal to make five birdies for a 67 that gave her a share of the lead with Julieta Granada of Paraguay, who scrambled for a 71. They were at 7-under 137 going into the weekend at the Tiburon Golf Club. Morgan Pressel, shot a 66 and was one shot out of the lead.
Wie, who captured her first major this year at Pinehurst No. 2 in the U.S. Women's Open, is No. 4 in the Race to CME Globe. Only the top three players, Stacy Lewis, Inbee Park and 17-year-old Lydia Ko, can win the $1 million bonus simply by winning the tournament. So Wie needs a little bit of help and she got it because Lewis shot 74 and is six shots out of the lead. Park couldn't get a putt to drop. She also had a 74. Ko had another 71 and was five shots behind.
