PGA Championships: Theegala Third As Schauffele, Morikawa Lead; Scheffler Falls Back
Indian American Sahith Theegala: Indian American Sahith Theegala put himself in perfect position to make a bid for his maiden Major, as he was sole third and one shot behind Xander Schauffele (68) and Collin Morikawa (67) after three rounds of the 106th PGA Championships. Theegala after 65-67 on the first two days, turned in a 67 on third to 14-under as Morikawa, winner of 2002 PGA and 2021 Open, is looking for a third Major, and Schauffele seeking his first Major, was at 15 under.
Theegala may have just one PGA TOUR win to his name, but he has been second twice this season and both times in Signature events (The Sentry and RBC Heritage).
The 26-year-old Theegala’s best Major finish has been T-9 on his Masters debut in 2023, leads the Par-3 scoring has scrambled well from the rough, and is the best this week in 3-putt avoidance.
