SOCIAL MEDIA

WISCONSIN — Overnight leader Bernhard Langer carded 3-under 68 on Saturday and takes a two-stroke lead into the final round as he goes for his record-setting 46th win on PGA Tour Champions.

Pursued by a determined bunch, Langer now has a two-stroke lead into final round of US Senior Open Championship with three-day total of six-under-par 207.

Wisconsin natives Jerry Kelly (second) and Steve Stricker (third) lurk behind the 65-year-old World Golf Hall of Fame member as Stricker eyes his third consecutive major title.

Bernhard seeks his record-setting 46th win on PGA Tour Champions out of 329 starts. He is currently tied with Hale Irwin for the most wins (45) in PGA Tour Champions history

At 65 years, 10 months, 5 days, he would extend his record as the oldest winner in PGA Tour Champions history with a victory on Sunday.

Kelly, winner of two majors on PGA TOUR Champions, sits in second at 4-under after posting 68 on Saturday.

The 56-year-old Kelly seeks his 12th win on PGA Tour Champions after 140 starts. He will play in the last group of the final round for the second time this season (0-for-1)

Stricker is looking to become the first player in PGA Tour Champions history to win three consecutive majors contested after carding 68 and sitting in third at 3-under.

South Korean Yang Yong-eun birdied three of his last six holes en route to 69 in the third round. He sits T4 at 1-under. The 51-year-old seeks his first win on PGA TOUR Champions (39th start)

Yang’s best finish was second during the 2022 Ascension Charity Classic. And a win on Sunday would be his first since 2018 The Crowns (on the Japan Golf Tour) and would snap a winless streak of 5 years, 2 months, 3 days (or 1,890 days)
