Jon Rahm (-5)the only Spaniard present in the final series of the FedEx Cup in the PGA Tourmanaged to redeem himself this Saturday from his bad start in the BMW Championship.

That yes, good recoveries and a greater success with the putter than he had been showing since he started the tournament make him reluctant to say the last word about him, as a huge competitor that he is.

Ahead, a real cockfight for victory. Despite the withdrawal of Will Zalatoris at hole 5 due to discomfort in his back and the controversial decision of Cameron Smith not to participate, with the shadow of LIFE Golf behind him, the pursuers of Cantlay, another of the four players who hit 65 today, are first class. Especially, Xander Schauffele (-11), Adam Scott (-10)the number 1 in the world, Scottie Scheffler (-10)o Collin Morikawa (-9). Although without forgetting Scott Stallings (-11) and Aaron Wise (-9), who have sneaked into the ‘party’ with all deserved…
