DORAL, Fla. (AP) - J.B. Holmes kept his lead. Rory McIlroy lost his cool.
Holmes was 11 shots worse than his tournament record-tying 62, finishing with a tee shot in the water and a double bogey on the 18th hole Friday for a 1-over 73. That still was enough to take a two-shot lead over Ryan Moore into the weekend at the Cadillac Championship.
McIlroy made the wrong kind of splash at Trump National Doral - first with a shot, then with his club.
On a wild afternoon of eagles, birdies and big numbers at every turn, McIlroy produced the biggest highlight when he pulled his 3-iron into the water on the par-5 eighth, and then heaved the club some 50 yards into the middle of the lake.
McIlroy managed to salvage a bogey, made three birdies on the back nine and shot a 2-under 70 to stay in the hunt at this World Golf Championship. He was still eight shots behind Holmes, though the Blue Monster is a tough course for anyone to protect a lead.
Holmes was at 9-under 135.
Moore had a 71.
Adam Scott made six birdies in his round of 68 and was three shots behind at 6-under 138. Masters champion Bubba Watson made a pair of eagles, including a bunker shot he holed at the 10th, for a 69. Henrik Stenson bounced back from a double bogey in the water at the par-3 fourth hole with three straight birdies in his round of 71. They were at 4-under 140, five shots behind.

Spain's Azahara Munoz was third at 7 under after a 67.
Top-ranked Lydia Ko birdied three of the last four holes for a 70 to top the group at 6 under. The 17-year-old Ko is coming off victories in the Women's Australian Open and New Zealand Women's Open.
Stacy Lewis, the 2013 winner, also was 6 under along with 2011 champion Karrie Webb and Jenny Shin. Lewis had a 69, and Webb and Shin shot 70.
Michelle Wie was tied for 23rd at 1 under after a 70.
Defending champion Paula Creamer was tied for 36th at 1 over after a 71. Last year, Creamer won with a 75-foot eagle putt on the second hole of a playoff with Munoz.
