Hot third round sends Scheffler up on top

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP)—Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder have reached a moment of truth.

Five months after cutting his right hand preparing a Christmas dinner, world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler has himself on the verge of a third major title at the PGA Championship.

The 28-year-old American fired three birdies and an eagle in the last five holes to fire a six-under par 65 in Saturday's third round at Quail Hollow to seize a three-stroke lead entering Sunday's final round.

Scheffler has converted his past seven 54-hole leads into victories, the same style he used to win the 2022 and 2024 Masters.

After winning nine times in 2024, including Paris Olympic gold, Scheffler struggled this season after missing the first month of the campaign due to the hand injury.

The youngest team in league history to win at least 60 regular-season games can validate that success when it hosts Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets in Game 7 of the Western Conference semifinals on Sunday.
