'Players Championship' is up for grabs

PGA Tour Players Championship scoreboard http://www.pgatour.com/tournaments/the-players-championship/leaderboard.html

It is their championship, and going into today's final round, nobody can makeup their minds whose it is !!

24 players are within 4 shots of the lead on this TPC Sawgrass course where doubles and triples aren't just served in the members lounge..


 
AP...Chris Kirk kept his cool during a rocky patch Saturday and made three straight birdies for a 4-under 68 that gave him a one-shot lead but yesterday the leaderboard was crammed with so many players that it was hard to keep track who was coming and who was going
 
For example Ben Martin fell out of the lead with a bogey on the 18th for a 68, leaving him one shot behind along with Kevin Kisner (67) and Bill Haas (68). Justin Thomas was tied for the lead, but that was before the leaders teed off. The 22-year-old rookie set a Stadium Course record with 10 birdies in his round of 65 and was two behind, along with Sergio Garcia (67), Scott Brown (69), Canada’s David Hearn (70), Jerry Kelly (72) and Na, who had to settle for a 72.
 
Rory McIlroy had a 70 to stay in the mix and he would be leading if he could make a putt. He leads all stats in fairways hit and greens in regulation, but he lipped out or burnt the edge so many times I lost count
 
Tiger Woods had an ugly 75 and is part of an All-Star cast at the bottom of the leaderboard. The last 10 players have combined for 153 wins on the PGA Tour and 27 majors. The top 10 going into Sunday have combined for 23 tour wins and no majors.
 
Playing with Woods was Graham DeLaet. The Saskatchewan native moved 15 spots up the leaderboard Saturday in large part to to a miraculous eagle on the par-5 9th.
