Burns -2, Scott Par (8)

We're back underway!
Hatton holes a five-footer for par on 9.
Rory McIlroy says if he can't summon motivation for next month's Open Championship in Royal Portrush then he doesn't know what will.
McIlroy, 36, has struggled for form since he fulfilled a childhood ambition of winning The Masters in April.
The grand slam winner performed poorly at the PGA Championship and missed the cut with an erratic display at the Canadian Open.
He finished the 2025 US Open on a positive note, though, hitting six birdies in a final round of 67 to sneak inside the top 30 at Oakmont.
With play resuming at 5.40, that leaves the leaders three hours to play 11 holes.
Will they get a move on?
The USGA are hoping to resume play at 5.40pm ET / 10.40pm BST.
The USGA have just informed us we are looking at a delay of approximately 45 minutes.
1 | Sam Burns | -2 | 7 |
2 | Adam Scott | -1 | 7 |
3 | Viktor Hovland | +1 | 8 |
3 | Tyrrell Hatton | +1 | 8 |
5 | J. J. Spaun | +2 | 8 |
5 | Carlos Ortiz | +2 | 8 |
7 | Robert MacIntyre | +3 | 10 |
8 | Jon Rahm | +4 | 67 |
The horn has just blown to suspend play at Oakmont.
It looks biblical out there.
Hovland +1 (8)
Viktor Hovland pays the full price for missing the green at the 8th.
A poor tee shot find the right bunker and, despite splashing out to around 10 feet, pulls his par putt.
Back to 1-over.
Hatton +1 (8)
The pin at the long par-3 8th is tucked at the back right of the green today.
Tyrrell Hatton finds the green, but is some 60 feet away.
He judges the weight perfectly and ticks off a great par.
Here comes the rain, everybody!
Burns -2, Scott -1 (6)
Poor from the former Masters champion, who takes three to get down at the par-3 6th.
Burns is in for par and regains the lead.
Hovland E, Spaun +2 (6)
Viktor Hovland's birdie putt at the 6th green looks like it's about to drop but somehow drifts by the left cup.
He can't believe it.
Meanwhile, JJ Spaun splashes out from the bunker and cannot save par from 11 feet.
Five bogeys in six hols for the American. Who saw that coming?
Hatton +1, Ortiz +2 (6)
Tyrrell Hatton finds another fairway at the 7th but is well short with his approach.
Looks like he'll have nearly 70 feet to navigate for par.
Scheffler +4 (9)
More frustration for the world number one at the 9th.
He finds the putting surface in regulation but yet again watches a makeable birdie putt slip by.
You have to think had he not made that early double then he would be well in this.
Is he too far adrift now?
Hovland E, Spaun +1 (5)
Grim stuff from the American, who makes his fourth bogey in five holes.
Will he settle down soon?
Hovland converts his short birdie putt
Burns -3, Scott -2 (4)
Scott takes a drop and is faced with a curling putt right-to-left putt down the hill from 45 feet.
Anywhere inside 10 feet is a good effort, in all honesty.
Scott thinks he's holed it, but it just grazes the cup. Easy birdie though.
Burns walks away with a par.
Hovland +1, Spaun E (4)
JJ Spaun is in trouble again at the 5th. His tee shot finds the thick rough right of the fairway and he's forced to hack out.
His second almost finds more thick stuff, but settles in the first cut of rough.
Hovland finds the left trap with his tee shot, but has a wonderful opportunity to get back to level after firing a dart straight at the pins.
Looks about five feet for birdie.
Fairway bunker flair!

Burns -3, Scott -1 (4*)
Scott finds fairway at the fourth and doesn't seem too pleased with his approach. He leans left, but his golf ball goes right and eventually settles next to a sprinkler head at the back of the green.
Tricky two-putt from there.
Burns finds the front bunker and splashes out well short...
It's getting interesting!
Hatton +1 (6*)
Tyrrell Hatton, fresh off a par at the 5th, hits what looks like a dangerous shot at the par-3 6th.
He asks for his golf ball to carry the bunker. It obliges, and slowly trickles towards the hole.
Great chance to get to level incoming...
Hovland +1, Spaun E (4)
Viktor Hovland avoids his third bogey in a row with a clutch par putt at the par-5 4th.
Spaun finally gets a par on his scorecard.
Burns -3, Scott -1 (3)
The Aussie makes another mistake and pays the price for missing the fairway at the third.
Scott is forced to lay up short of the green and cannot salvage par from 50 feet.
Burns is in for par and, suddenly, his lead is two.
Hatton +1, Ortiz +1 (4)
The Englishman sends a towering shot into the 4th green with a 3-wood and sets up an incredible opportunity for eagle.
It slips by, but it's an easy birdie.
Ortiz settles for par.
When Tyrrell Hatton ISN'T talking to it, you know he likes it!
