Rory McIlroy is chasing a second Irish Open title and a big payday at the K Club this weekend.
The Holywood man surged into contention at the Kildare course with a third round 66 to get himself into the final three-ball on Sunday alongside Hurly Long and Jordan Smith.
McIlroy won on this course in 2016 and is the current runaway leader of the DP World Tour prize list.

This year's prize fund at the Horizon Irish Open totals €6,000,000, with the winner taking home a whopping €974,605, while second take place will pocket €630,627, with third taking €361,177.49.
Offaly's Shane Lowry is also in the shake-up but will need a strong back nine to win his second Irish Open after his remarkable win as an amateur at Baltray in 2009.
McIlroy said ahead of the final round: "It's hard to try to win your national Open and try to get over the line. I'm excited to have another opportunity.
"I was fortunate enough to do it a few years ago here and having those memories is going to be nice, and also having the support of the crowd out there as well is going to be incredibly helpful."
