With as many as seven golfers within three strokes of the lead, Sunday's final round at the 112th U.S. Open is shaping up to be one for the ages.
And with only two players, 54-hole leaders Graem McDowell and Jim Furyk, currently the only two golfers below par, the USGA's initial goal of seeing an even-par winner this year seems like a very plausible scenario.
McDowell and Furyk will pair up for the final grouping of the afternoon, and will tee off on the first hole at 5:10 p.m. CST. After a day three low 67 on Saturday, a fast-charging Lee Westwood remains right on McDowell and Furyk's heels, and will tee off in the second-to-last group with Fredrik Jacobson at 5:00 p.m.
The early favorite after looking strong through the first two days, former champ Tiger Woods certainly did not benefit from a woeful 75 on Saturday and has been placed in a 3:50 p.m. timeslot that is eight groups away from the leaders. Woods remains in the hunt being just five shots off the pace, but will likely need to card a round in the mid 60's to ascend the leaderboard.
