Meet Peter Kuest, the Monday qualifier with a chance to win Rocket Mortgage Classic

Rickie Fowler will certainly demand most of the headlines as he takes a one-shot lead into Sunday's final round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic. But it's also hard to ignore arguably the second best story through 54 holes.

That would be Peter Kuest, the 25-year-old BYU product who Monday-qualified into this week's event at Detroit Golf Club.

Kuest is tied with Aaron Rai for fourth at 17 under, within striking distance of Fowler's 20-under mark. After opening in 8-under 64 Thursday, Kuest added a third-round 65 Saturday to re-enter the conversation. He hit 16 greens, eagled the par-5 14th hole and birdied each of the four par-3s.
