Oakmont, PA.- Sam Burns saved the final hole equally after playing partner JJ Spon’s bogie and earned a shot lead at the US Open on Saturday at the Omont Country Club.
Burns granted a card of 1-under-Burbar 69 to climb under 4 for the week, better than a span (69) and Adam Scott of Australia, who charged late to shoot 67. Victor Hoveland (70) of Norway is three to three at the speed of undergone.
Burns, Spanish and Hoveland are all dying for their first major championship.
Carlos Orties, to become a major winning man to win a major Mexican man, was a bogie-free reading of his equal sev at number 18. He still posted 67, who was tied with Scott for a low round of the day, and also sits on the fifth.
Tierel Haton, a member of England’s Artizer’s partner Live Golf, shot 68 and ranks sixth for 1 over with South African Thriston Lawrence (70).
Omkont obtained the night’s rain and another quick and heavy shower in the Pittsburgh region, historically rains, in the round of leaders. The course played somewhat soft and easy, resulting in an average scoring average of 72.6, less than two shots compared to Friday.
Both Burns and Spon fielded their drive in Par-4 18th in the right, but a Greenside bunker was found in the next shot of Spon and Burns flew him into the back of the green. Spain could not convert up-and-down, while Burns managed two-puts to live under 4.
Scott was also equal through two and a half rounds before hitting a stellar chain of shots on nine of Saturday. He pasted his tea shot at number 13 within 5 feet, then spinning his approach on number 14 within the cup’s inch and made it a back-to-back beardi.
After exiting the sand at number 15 for the bird, Scott took it to a short para -4 17th position in the bunker and was printed for about 14 feet. He made the upcoming Birdi shot, while behind him, bogid burn number 16-is making a three-wave lead in the under 3.
But Burns and Spon chased at number 17 with their own Birdies. For spawn, it ended the stretch of 12 consecutive purses.
