Scottie Scheffler Takes Three-Shot Lead at PGA Championship Amid Weather Delays

Scottie Scheffler delivered a commanding performance during the third round of the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, shooting a six-under 65 to take a three-shot lead heading into the final round. His round was highlighted by an eagle on the par-4 14th and multiple birdies over the closing holes, showcasing precise shot-making and control despite challenging weather and course conditions. Notable contenders like Jon Rahm and Bryson DeChambeau remained in contention but could not match Scheffler's low scoring, with Rahm positioned five shots behind as he seeks to regain major-winning form. The round saw weather delays that altered tee times and playing groups, contributing to fluctuating leaderboard dynamics, but Scheffler's consistent accuracy and strategic play set him apart. Other players such as Alex Noren, Adam Scott, and Cam Davis are also in the mix, hoping to close the gap on Scheffler in the final round. Scheffler's performance solidifies his status as the world No. 1 and favorite to secure his third major title.
