A late one, but we’re done. It was worth the wait, too. Mark Hubbard and Maverick McNealy made birdies at 18 to move to -6 and -5 respectively. Xander Schauffele heads into Friday with a three shot – an exact repeat of last Thursday in the Wells Fargo Championship. He didn’t hang on then – what will happen this week?! We’ll see and Scott will be back with you for the early action tomorrow.
-9: Schauffele (F)
-6: Finau (F), Theegala (F), Hubbard (F),
-5: McIlroy (F), MacIntyre (F), Hoge (F), T. Kim (F), Detry (F), Morikawa (F), McNealy (F)
-4: Kohles (F), Koepka (F), Moore (F), Noren (F), Eckroat (F), Scheffler (F)
Here’s Ewan Murray on Xander Schauffele’s rapid start to the championship and Rory McIlroy’s response.
