CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Standing on the 16th tee box at Quail Hollow Club on Saturday, LIV Golf League captain Bryson DeChambeau had the outright lead in the PGA Championship.
DeChambeau had just made a birdie on the par-5 15th, his fifth of the round, to get to 8 under. He was one stroke ahead of Davis Riley and Venezuela's Jhonattan Vegas, the unlikely leader in each of the first two rounds.
"I was pumped," DeChambeau said. "I was like, 'All right, in the lead. Let's go. Let's keep pressing.'"
Unfortunately for DeChambeau, he still had to play the "Green Mile," Quail Hollow's famous three-hole closing stretch.
