US PGA Championship 2023: Brooks Koepka leads with Rory McIlroy and Justin Rose in touch
Two-time champion Brooks Koepka takes a one-shot lead into Sunday's final round of the US PGA Championship with Justin Rose and Rory McIlroy among a stellar group of contenders at Oak Hill.
However, three birdies on the back nine helped him post a creditable one-under par 69 for a second successive day. "I was along for the ride," said Rose, who fist-bumped and slapped playing partner Block on the shoulder after the 46-year-old American had holed a birdie putt on the 14th. Rose will have Scheffler for company on Sunday after the world number two bogeyed four of his first seven holes in the worst of the rain as he posted a 73 and dropped from joint leader at halfway to four off the pace.Saturday's third round got under way in dreadful conditions with torrential downpours adding another layer of difficulty to Oak Hill's already punishing East Course.
However, by the time the 33-year-old Koepka rattled in a 47-foot birdie putt on the 17th those jeers had long since been replaced by cheers.
