Follow all the action as Will Zalatoris takes a one-shot lead into the third round of the PGA Championship.
The 25-year-old American followed an opening round of 66 with a score of 65 on Friday as he was trying to win his first major title. He will be paired with Mito Pereira in the final set, who has never cut in a major tournament. There is a crowded field behind them that includes Bubba Watson, Justin Thomas and Rory McIlroy. The Northern Irish failed to build on his impressive start and picked up a single card over 71 yesterday and is now sitting five shots off the lead.
Tiger Woods once again showed an extraordinary mettle to avoid a cut after Round 69, although his hopes for a major victory No. 16 are now outdated. There are several notable names that have failed to make this reduction, including World Champion No. 1 and Masters Scottie Scheffler, Dustin Johnson and Patrick Cantlay. “Definitely disappointed,” Scheffler said. “I am disappointed too. It is never fun to lose any pieces. I want to be able to play the weekend and try to get rid of it as hard as I can. I just haven’t had this week.”

Make that +12 for Woods, where the ghost line extends into four holes. The damage was done finding the green side hideout on par-4 12.

Unfortunately, this has turned into a terrible age for Tiger Woods.
Three consecutive bogeys over the turn dropped him to +11, eight more for his run so far.
Rahm has now also dropped two shots after making him a bogey on the seventh, but there’s better news for Webb Simpson, who is looking for an eagle at 5 par-5 to hit -3 for the day.

Tiger Woods’ unexpected attempt to play his way into the competition for the fifth US PGA Championship came to a watery end in the third round at Southern Hills.
Woods only cut halfway with a shot to spare the compliment of playing the last seven holes of his second round in two, 69 leaving the 15-time main winner 12 shots off the lead held by Will Zalatores.
However, the 46-year-old spoke of his chances of making an advance on the field, pointing to Bubba Watson’s 63rd shot on Friday as the possible outcome.
However, after crashing from 13 feet to save the first level, Woods drove into the creek that bisects the second hole and made a bogey with a five after dropping a penalty kick, before finding more water in the sixth.
Woods then missed the green target with his third shot from the drop zone en route to the triple bogey and dropped another shot the next time to slide further down the leaderboard.

PGA Championship: TRIPLE bogey for Woods
Woods disaster – and he drops to the leaderboard with a triple bogey six in third in the sixth. His loaded shot was well below the green and I found the water, it got more difficult from there, because from the drop zone his ball failed to grab the green.
Woods is sitting at +7, four in his run.

He scrambled up and down with Woods in fifth. His drive found himself among the fans on the left of the lane and forced him to back off. From the lane, his approach drifted left and short. But a well-controlled knockout across the green set up his counterpart.
Beyond that, Webb Simpson made a quick start with the Birds in third and fourth.

Woods within five feet of the fourth! Nice approach, right in the middle of the green.
Oh no… but the lips that are placed around the back. The jumper seemed inevitable, but it stayed at +1 for the day.
Ironically, his playing partner, Sean Norris, was the one making a birdie – despite the scramble from the creek bank to the back of the green.
He made the bird out of 40 feet – what three!

Morikawa is pretty close to fifth at 10ft, as he looks to get back to a tie on his tour. Woods reached the leading edge of a third of a triple in two shots but left his birdie high. He moved on to the fourth and found the right path.
