BROOKLINE, Mass. — With the wind blowing and the golf course firming up, Matt Fitzpatrick and Will Zalatoris put on a clinic Saturday during the third round of the U.S. Open. On a day that saw much of the field shoot over par, the two young guns stood up to the challenge shooting 68 and 67, respectively.
And the forecast doesn’t look any better for Sunday.
With more wind and even colder temperatures on deck, it will be difficult for someone further down the leaderboard to chase down the two frontrunners, especially if one of them can put together an under-par round.
Before the last several groups tee off, let’s take a look at the largest 54-hole comebacks in U.S. Open history.
