DJ leads, 12 players within 3 shots Sunday at PGA Championship.. Live scoreboard / tee times

PGA Championship Sunday leaderboard/ tee times https://www.pgatour.com/leaderboard.html

Yesterday there were 36 International players who made the cut of top 70 and ties, same today, except only 4 are in contention, within 12 shots of the lead held  by Dustin Johnson at -9 after his 8 birdie 65.

Veteran Englishmen Paul Casey is quietly 68,67,68 -7, Justin Rose 66 68 70 -6 as is Tommy Fleetwood 70 64 70 and from Australia Jason Day 65 69 70.

I couldn't keep track of the lead yesterday, I think 8 guys were in it or had a share, before DJ came out on top. Walter Hagen won 4 in a row in the 20's, it hasn't happened since so Koepka at -7 has a chance for three, despite 3 consecutive bogey's late in his 69 yesterday.

Rookie American Scottie Scheffler was on the Korn Ferry Tour last year, but is having a hell of a week 66 71 65 -8, Cameron Champ can't even use his enormous power and length on Harding Park is also -8, 71 64 67. 

Then consider another young stud Collin Morikawa at -7 69 69 65, and Bryson DeChambeau with all his young bluster at -6 68 70 66, and Tony Finau who has done everything but win since COVID, also -6 67 70 67, and Daniel Berger -6 67 67 70. 

So don't ask me to pick the winner, anyone of these guys are perfectly capable but I do believe the champion will come from these twelve. Guys like Haotong Li, yesterday's leader now at -5 could shoot -6 64 today and still be at -11, and you have to think one of the twelve will get to -12 at least.

Canadians Adam Hadwin 68 71 70 -1 is off at 1030am (pst) with American Denny McCarthy while Mac Hughes 73 68 69 E is at 1010am with Aussie Cameron Smith.

Former wonderkid Jordan Spieth was first off at 7am with JT Boston. Spieth was 2nd last in this field this morning.

Weather : Another cool San Francisco day, just 13*c early, rising to 20*c with a significant wind up to 30kph from the W during the leaders  round this afternoon.
