Rahm Pulls Level With Leaders at PGA Championship After Third-Round 67

A brutal course setup has compressed the leaderboard entering the final round.

Overview

  • Jon Rahm shot a third-round 67 to reach four under, pulling level with the leaders after a bogey at the last.
  • Rory McIlroy posted a 66 to sit at three under and remain one shot back.
  • Alex Smalley and Maverick McNealy shared the 36-hole lead at four under in what officials called the most crowded PGA Championship leaderboard through two rounds.
  • Players said Aronimink’s par-70, 7,394-yard layout played cold and windy with ultra-tight flag locations that Scottie Scheffler called the toughest he has seen on tour.
  • New faces have stayed in the mix as David Puig moved to two under for his best major position and club pro Ben Kern advanced, while stars like Bryson DeChambeau and Viktor Hovland missed the cut.
