The PGA Championship now has two leaders in its ranking: Xander Schauffele and Collin Morikawa. Leader since the first round, Xander Schauffele scores 68 (-3) this Saturday. Well started at the start of the game, the end of the day could have been less beautiful when the Valhalla Country Club course inflicted a double bogey on him at the 15th. As a great champion, Schauffele finished his round with two birdies on his last two holes and retained his place at the head.
Collin Morikawa joins his compatriot at the top of the ranking thanks to a score of 67 (-4). The double major winner will try this Sunday to add a new line to his fine list of achievements. Sahith Theegala completes the podium.
Irishman Shane Lowry signs the card of the day this Saturday and equals the record card of the PGA Championship with a 62 (-9). The Irishman's game was perfect this Saturday and could even have made history if he had ended his round with a birdie on the par 5 of the 18th. He is 4th, two shots from the lead.

Bryson DeChambeau, after being at the top of the Masters leaderboards, shines once again this week. He is also 4th at -13.
Heated day for world number 1 Scottie Scheffler. Until then 4th, Scheffler experienced a nightmarish start to the game with a double bogey at 2 followed by two bogeys at 3 and 4. A birdie at 18 allowed him to save a score of 73 (+2), a card which surely eliminates him from the race for victory.
