McIlroy's back in action this weekend — here are some other sporting highlights to look out for

Gavan Casey fills us in on the Women’s Six Nations campaign concluding, and Celtic facing a crucial clash.

RORY MCILROY, SHANE Lowry, Pádraig Harrington and Tom McKibbin will hope to lead an Irish charge at the second major of the year, with all four in action at the PGA Championship from Thursday until, hopefully, Sunday. Connacht face a must-win clash away to Edinburgh in their bid for a URC play-off spot on Friday evening, with Ulster looking over their shoulders as they face Glasgow Warriors at the same time. Celtic seek to end Hearts’ fairytale in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday afternoon, while, on Sunday, Ireland round off their Women’s Six Nations campaign at the Aviva Stadium against Scotland, and Monaghan and Armagh clash in the Ulster football decider.
