How to watch the PGA Championship on Saturday
The 2026 PGA Championship cut has been made and now the battle for Wanamaker begins Saturday at Aronimink. Going into Round 3, the number of players tied in three under has been reduced to six, but two players have made it through.
Alex Smalley and Maverick McNealy navigated strong winds and treacherous conditions (not to mention the glacial pace of play) to reach four under and tie for the 36-hole bullet.
But none of them are the main winners, and there are many who are close on the leaderboard.
Hideki Matsuyama is among those tied at three under. World No. 1 and reigning champion Scottie Scheffler and two-time PGA Champion Justin Thomas there are two fewer, as is Players champion Cameron Young.
Jon Rahm (a sub), Jason’s day (a sub), Patrick Reed (even par), Rory McIlroy (one over), Jordan Spieth (one over), Xander Schauffele (one over) and Brooks Koepka (one over) are well within striking distance with two rounds to play in Aronimink.
They now head into Saturday’s third round to position themselves for a run in the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday.
