Despite the wet and challenging conditions, it was two-time PGA Championship winner Brooks Koepka leading the field at 6-under par. After shooting a Round 2 best 4-under par on Friday afternoon, Koepka finished his third round with a repeat finish of 4-under par on Saturday.

Canadian golfer Corey Conners had another good round on Saturday with only one bad hole where he double bogeyed. He is currently is tied for second with Norwegian-born Viktor Hovland, as they both sit at 5-under par.

Oak Hill Country Club continues to play tough for golfers in this tournament, as only eight players sit at even par or better after three rounds.

If Conners is able to catch Koepka and earn a win at the PGA Championship, he would become the first Canadian golfer to win a major golf championship since Michael Weir won the Masters Tournemtn in 2003.
