Scottish sensation Robert MacIntyre is just 18 holes away from securing a career-defining victory in Baltimore, after an outstanding performance left him with a four-shot lead over world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler.
The 27-year-old left-hander delivered a masterclass in precision and composure during the third round, carding a flawless 66 to surge ahead of the field. His relentless consistency has put him in pole position heading into the final day.
A Battle Against the Best
MacIntyre’s biggest challenge comes from Scheffler, the reigning Masters champion, who remains hot on his heels despite a mixed round. The American superstar struggled early but fought back with crucial birdies to stay within striking distance.
"I’ve put myself in a great position," MacIntyre said after his round. "But I know Scottie won’t give up easily. I’ve got to stay focused and keep playing my game."
Home Crowd Advantage?
Despite Scheffler’s star power, the Baltimore crowd has warmed to MacIntyre’s fearless approach and charismatic style. His aggressive play and clutch putting have won over fans, who are now rallying behind the underdog.
If MacIntyre can hold his nerve, this could be the breakthrough win that propels him into golf’s elite. The final round promises high drama—will the Scot seal the deal, or will Scheffler stage a comeback?
