Wells Fargo Championship Round 3 Saturday tee times and pairings
In the 2nd round of the Wells Fargo Championship, Xander Schauffele shot a 4-under 67, bringing his total score to 11-under and giving him a four-shot lead.
Xander Schauffele, a seven-time PGA Tour winner, is currently preparing for next week’s PGA Championship. He holds a four-shot lead at the halfway point of the Wells Fargo Championship, with a total score of 11 under par. The golf course has been challenging for all players, who have had to strategize every move to maintain their lead amidst intense battle. The emotional pressure has been high, showcasing the mental fortitude required to succeed in the sport.
As the players teed off, they had to be meticulous in their precision to negotiate each shot. One player remarked on the subtle nuances of the game, saying, “Trying to get it to turn over that ball.” Despite facing challenges such as a slight leak to the right, players expertly maneuvered their shots, navigating bunkers and rough patches with finesse.
The greens presented their own set of challenges, with one player noting, “This is probably the hardest green on this golf course.” Although Xander Schauffele maintained his lead, a bogey on his final hole brought the chasers, including Jason Day and Rory McIlroy, one shot closer. They will be four shots behind when the weekend starts. Rory McIlroy will play in the final pairing with Schauffele on Saturday, and they will tee off at 1:35 p.m. ET. Day will play in the penultimate pairing with Taylor Moore at 1:25 p.m. ET.
