Scottie Scheffler maintained a five-shot advantage at the RBC Canadian Open after the third round was halted due to darkness Saturday. Scheffler fired a 4-under 66 in Oakville, Ontario, leaving him at 15-under 195 heading into Monday’s finish. He’ll be paired with Tony Finau, who is at 10-under. World No. 1 Rory McIlroy (67) and Wyndham Clark (69) are tied for third at 9 under.
Thanks to a new driveway swing tip, Justin Leonard recorded his highest score in months. Leonard revealed that he received swing advice while practicing in his driveway from an unknown person. Leonard implemented the tip during the third round of the Travelers Championship, which propelled him to a 64, his lowest score since February. Leonard’s new swing technique has enhanced his accuracy and distance, resulting in a significant improvement in his game.
As the anticipation builds for the fourth and final round of The Open, the tee times have been released. With four players within two shots of the lead, every shot promises to be critical.
