Both Adam Hadwin and Brooke Henderson will begin Sunday just shots off the lead in their respective events. Hadwin at the US Open is T4 -2 with the lead at -4 and Henderson 3rd at Meijer LPGA Classic at -15, 3 shots behind and in the penultimate pairing after winning last week.
US Open:
Scoring has been at a premium at this US Open at the Country Club in Brookline, Mass.. Only 9 players are under par, with the field incredibly bunched.
A couple of birdies can shoot you up the leaderboard. One of them is Adam Hadwin 66 72 70 -2 who is having a career best major. I have't checked but his opening -4 66 was the low round of the tournament.
Having gone out in +1 36, he was all pars on the back until he chipped in for birdie 4 at the par 5 14th, got unlucky with his approach at 15 into the thick rough only 20 feet from the pin resulting in bogey, but he bounced right back with a 3 at the tough par 4 17th for an E 70.
He will be paired with world #1 Scottie Scheffler in the 3rd last pairing on Sunday. Scheffler, Rahm -3, McIlroy -1 will share the spotlight with the 2 leaders Will Zalatoris and Matt Fitzpatrick both at -4, all vying to make history and win the US Open.
Mac Hughes 72 69 73 +4 T33.

Coming off her 11th LPGA win last week Brooke Henderson has continued her hot streak heading into Sunday 68 66 67 -15 just 3 shots off the lead held by defending champion Nelly Korda -18 then Jennifer Kupcho -17 who will be in the last pairing.
Brooke will be in the penultimate pairing with Lexi Thompson -14.
The 2 time winner was bogey free with 5 birdies and only 26 putts which was the difference, as she only hit 7 \13 fairways and 13/18 greens in regulation.
