CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Rory McIlroy was in position to become the first three-time winner of the Wells Fargo Championship. “I’m three shots closer to the lead than I was starting off the day, so that’s a good thing.”Nobody finishes the Wells Fargo Championship better than McIlroy. His average final round score at the Wells Fargo is a 68.7, better than any other player. Pat Perez also was in contention, one shot ahead of McIlroy, but he’s coming off a torn calf muscle. As he walked from hole to hole, McIlroy was repeatedly greeted by fans wishing him happy birthday.
