Scottie Scheffler’s leadership rises to 8 in the dark in the hometown of CJ Cup Byron Nelson

McKinney, Texas – Scottie Scheffler’s pleasant lead in his hometown CJ Cup Byron Nelson was the same late in the third round, as it was at the beginning, even without the most popular player shown over the first 36 holes.

He then found that shape again and made a big role even greater in 23 despite, while he finished after sunset Saturday.

Scheffler has eight shots after 5-Mank 66 took five Finals of five holes – last of 16. years, more than 13 hours after the day when it started that the second round, including 18 players who did not even start. There were six hours of time on Friday.

Erik von Rooyen (65), Adam Schenk (65) and Ricky Castillo (67) are 15 below, with Kurt Kitiyama (68) and Jhundant Vegas (67) another blow.

Scheffler had his first two Bogea tournaments and was 2 under the day through 13 holes after the lowest rating of 36 holes in 124 (18 below) disappeared. His hex leadership after two rounds was Nelson record.

In a short par-4, 14., Scheffler drove green before being deposited for the tap birds, then put his Tee on a long couple-3 15. In four meters for another bird.

The horn for darkness has already sounded after Scheffler, Castillo and Sam Stevens Teed turned off 18 when the group was still on the board, but cleared to guess they were trying to save time. Players had the opportunity to complete.

Scheffler could not see his second shot from the rough influence, but he reached green. Two placed with 31 meters for the largest leadership for 54 holes on the PGA tour, because Rory McIroy brought eight on his way to victory in the US 2011.

“I saw it take off the way I wanted that,” Scheffler said about his approach 18. “But after that I couldn’t see that far. Really, I’d say he read green.”

Van Rooyen was in the rough green 18 in two shots and asked another bird that would match a low day day, just so that only four moves from there.

“The rough was pretty thin, so I thought I could break the ball through it,” Van Rooyen said. “I’m not the first time. Then the second time was still dying. So I made a mistake wrong.”

Schenk, who missed six consecutive cuts coming to Nelson, left a similar feeling on his match 65 after Bogey On 15 stopped his swing on the TPC Craig’s exchange rate in the Dallas suburbs.

Stevens started the day alone in the other behind Scheffler, and the only player without Bogey left when he had four in the growth of five holes. Gender from the nearby Fort Wort was among the five players at 13 below after 70. years. That group included Antoine Rozner, who had a low day at 63.

Jordan Spieth, Scheffler’s stay of Dallas and a former University of Texas Golfer, filmed another consecutive 67 and 10 below. He was the first one of the two that he had made his tourist debut in Nelson when he argued as a 16-year-old in 2010. Years.

Scheffler’s first look was four years later, and a huge turn of events will not be the first of good friends who would win maybe his favorite event. He set up the first high school golfer from Dallas to beat Nelson since Scott Verblanc 2007. He could become the third wire winner on the wire in the Hayson history (1976) and Tom Watson (1980).

“I mean, I just came out with a golf course,” Scheffler said in the darkness of interviews after rounding. “Tomorrow he doesn’t really care now.”

Scheffler’s first Bogey came in a par-3 Fourth hole, when his wizard came short and missed 7 foot for a couple. The winner of the two-eyed masters missed five orders after missing a total of six first two rounds.

“I was definitely not sharp because I was the last two days, but I announced a pretty good result,” Scheffler said. “Over 72 tournaments, you will have days or usually at least one day where your momentum does not shoot all the cylinders as if it were the first two days. It’s all about how you fight.”
