Brooks Koepka has recorded his second successive 66 to take the lead at the US PGA Championship after the third round.
As wet conditions again pounded an already-imposing Oak Hill course, the American shook off the difficulties to produce five birdies and hit the front.
The LIV Golf player's round was in sharp contrast to joint second-round frontrunner Scottie Scheffler, who begun Saturday's play with back-to-back bogeys.
To the world number two's credit, he would complete the remaining 16 holes having dropped just one further shot, but Scheffler trails the four-time major winner by four shots heading into Sunday.
As it stands, Koepka's nearest challengers are Viktor Hovland and Corey Conners, who posted level-par rounds apiece to remain at five-under-par.
Bryson Dechambeau was also able to shoot that score to stay at three-under-par, occupying fourth spot on his own, while England's Justin Rose is level with Scheffler in a share of fifth.
Rory McIlroy produced his second 69 in a row to remain in contention, defying four bogeys to still make progress up the leaderboard.
PGA professional Michael Block continued to defy expectations with a third consecutive 70, and he is joined in tied eighth by Justin Suh who could only record a 73.
World number one Jon Rahm remains down the field in 42nd place, even though his round of 72 saw him advance six spots up the leaderboard. body check tags ::
