Pendrith -4 (4)
Solid start from Canada's Pendrith.
He's just birdied the 2nd and 4th to progress to 4-under par.

Solid start from Canada's Pendrith.
He's just birdied the 2nd and 4th to progress to 4-under par.
McIlroy +3 (14)
McIlroy drives way left into the water on the short par-4 14th.
He fails to get up and down and it leads to a bogey-five on the easiest hole on the course.
Rory just wants to get out of here.
He's shunned the media ever since Tuesday when news emerged about his driver having failed a CT test with the USGA.
Doubt we'll speak to him today either.
Schauffele, Burns -3 (14)
Defending champion Xander Schauffele and Sam Burns are 5-under par for their rounds thru 14.
That's the low round of the day so far.
The leading group tees off in exactly two hours from now at 2.50pm local time.
Homa +2 (3)
Max Homa has just seen red!
After finding the back of the green with his third shot into the 495-yard par-4 3rd, Homa flung his iron in frustration 50 yards in front of him.
He chipped up to six feet and then missed the bogey putt.
A double sends him to 2-over par.
Max Homa launches his club in disgust 🫨

McIlroy +2 (9)
McIlroy gets up and down for birdie on the short par-4 8th to move back to level on the round.
He's just narrowly missed a 30-footer for birdie on the tough par-4 9th.
Burns -3 (8)
Burns makes another birdie, this time from two feet on the short par-4 8th.
He's not going to win his first major but he's certainly making a late charge.
Burns -2 (7)
Burns has just drained an eagle from 18 feet on the par-5 7th.
The American has got the low round of the day going of the morning groups.
Burns is up to 2-under par.
McIlroy +3 (5)
A first birdie of the day for Rory.
He converts a five footer on 5.
Will Scottie see out his major hat-trick?
The bookies think so.
Scheffler is priced up at a warm 2/9 shot to win the PGA Championship ahead of the final round.
If Scottie wins the PGA he will be half way to the career grand slam.
And who's to say he won't go and win the U.S Open and The Open this summer to get it done in 2025?

McIlroy +4 (3)
Rory's woes continue with a second bogey on the par-4 3rd.
He once again found the greenside bunker with his approach shot and failed to get up and down.
Burns Par (3)
Sam Burns has got off to a nice start.
He's opened with a pair of birdies on 1 and 2 and made a par on 3.
McIlroy +3 (2)
McIlroy makes bogey at the 1st after failing to get up and down for par.
He's just made par on 2.
Awful start for Rory.
He's just not had it this week.
Garcia +6 (8)
Sergio Garcia may have found himself bottom of the board starting the final round, but the LIV Golf star is playing some of his best stuff on Sunday.
Garcia has just popped in a third birdie of the round on the 8th to move to 3-under for his round and to 6-over par for the tournament.
It's the lowest round in progress so far of the early groups.
Garcia is looking to throw his hat into the ring to once again return to the European Ryder Cup team this September.
He will be looking to pick up a win on LIV Golf and play well in the remaining majors this season to give himself a shot of making Luke Donald's team.
Garcia certainly has the experience having won the most points ever in Ryder Cup history with 28.5.
McIlroy +2
Rory McIlroy gets his final round underway alongside Chriatiaan Bezuidenhout at 9.50am.
That is 2.50pm UK time.
McIlroy has played badly this week by his own high standards.
He has refused to speak with the media ever since news emerged that his driver was found to be non-conforming on Tuesday afternoon.
The Masters champion starts the final day at 2-over par.
It's now just a case of pride for Rory.
Will he finally take it low at Quail Hollow, a venue where he has won a record four times on the PGA Tour?
Let's wait and see...

Scheffler finds himself at 11-under par after a brilliant 6-under 65 on Saturday.
The World No.1 leads by three over Sweden's Alex Noren, who posted an equally impressive 66 in the third round.
