The Olympic Golf Games will soon deliver their verdict for the men and with one round to go, it is Xander Schauffele and Jon Rahm who occupy the head of the ranking with a score of -14. Good game from Jon Rahm who scores 66 (-5) to reposition himself at the top of the rankings. We had to be more patient for the recent winner of The Open with a card of 68 (-3) thanks to a birdie pass at 12 and an eagle at 14.

Behind them, Tommy Fleetwood is in the mix at -13 despite a calmer day this Saturday in 69 (-2). The card of the day comes from Dane Nicolai Højgaard, author of a 62 (-9), allowing him to move up to 4th place.

Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy are 5th at -10 and also remain in the medal race.

French number 2 Victor Perez signs another great performance in this third round with a card of 68 (-3) thanks to a birdie at 18 bringing the national golf crowd to their feet. He is 13th at -8 and will have to work hard to win a medal.

Tough day for Matthieu Pavon who is relegated to last place in the ranking. His game, marked by a double bogey at 12, turned into a nightmare at the end of the day with a bogey at 17 followed by a triple bogey at 18.
