highlights and summary of the third round. Hughes-Oosthuizen-Henley, what a fight! Francesco Molinari 14th – OA Sport

Mackenzie Hughes, Canada; Louis Oosthuizen, Sudafrica; Russell Henley, Stati Uniti. The leading trio on the eve of the final round is this, with a battle involving a player who never made the cut in the tournament, a former Major winner (Open Championship 2010) and a man who hasn’t won on the PGA Tour for several years. ,

The cover, however, is also by Rory McIlroy, which goes back violently with the lap in -4 which brings him to fourth position: with the Northern Irishman there is the scientist (some would say “crazy”) of golf, Bryson DeChambeau. And in the area there is Jon Rahm, with the Spaniard slightly down, in sixth position, e Dustin Johnson in ninth: for the American

Good day for too Paul Casey, with the English at -4 and climbed back to 14th place, the same as his compatriot Ian Poulter, of a more than valid Francesco Molinari (five birdies and three bogeys for the -2 of the third 18 holes) and, among others, of Justin thomas e Brooks Koepka.

Also for Guido Migliozzi the prospects are good, despite the +2 on Saturday: after the third round he is in 21st place, a remarkable result for a rookie at Major level, who aims to reconfirm himself when he goes to the green with the now former leader Richard Bland (with the English, among other things, they scored the first two places at the British Masters, for a twist of fate). 45 ° instead Edoardo Molinari, dropped after Thursday, but in any case satisfied with what has happened so far.
