Jones leads PGA Championship
There, Lee picked off like the previous five holes hadn’t even occurred, shooting four birdies in his first five holes to make up for some of his early morning losses and leap back up the leaderboard.
The first one starts at 7 a.m. when the second round, which was halted by a wicked storm, gets underway.
But there he was joking. “So with my confidence level and his stellar play right now, I feel like it’s going to be an exciting finish tomorrow”. “But you have to give yourself that opportunity and I haven’t given myself that opportunity in the last few majors“.
And the 22-year-old can also replace Rory McIlroy as world No 1 with a victory if the latter, nine off the lead after a 68, does not finish outright second. So you’ve got to pace yourself and focus all day.
Two of golf’s most promising players will walk side by side on Sunday in the final round of the 2015 PGA Championship.
Spieth added three more birdies on the back nine while McIlroy chipped in for an eagle on the second and birdied the sixth, but bogeyed the seventh after failing to get up and down from left of the green.
Woods in now considering playing in next week’s Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, North Carolina – the final event of the regular season on the U.S. circuit – in a last-ditch bid for extra FedExCup points.
However, the Ryder Cup star got back on track in thrilling fashion on the fifth, taking off his shoes and socks to stand in a water hazard and play his third shot from a grass bank before holing from 20 feet for an unlikely birdie.
“I finally figured something out today on the putting green, but the damage had already been done”.
Woods said his setup was off. Rose, a 35-year-old Englishman, finished tied for second at the Masters this year.
Although he made his first ever cut at a major, Lee will be wondering what could have been. He went from the chip yips to driving troubles.
He lost his bid for the Grand Slam when he let the British Open slip away on his last two holes at St. Andrews. “Hence I took the break to try and figure it out”.

“I finally, though, hit enough good shots”.
“The spot where I had to have gone would have been much harder”. I just wasn’t scoring. I just haven’t done that.
“I had my chances but had a couple of bad putts”.
That’s what a lot of weekend hackers say.
Lingmerth said: “It was a very good feeling but there’s some scores to be had out there and my lead will probably not last too long”.
“Well, it just takes time”, he said. I’d have liked to have shot something in the 60s. Unfortunately, I’m potentially missing out on the playoffs.
“I’ve been in the lead on a tour event, but a major’s a different story”, Jones later told reporters.
“The confidence is growing quickly, that’s the fun part”, Woods said.
