– It tests patience, but such is golf. It’s up and down – especially in the putting where there is quite a large variance at times, says Åberg to Aftonbladet, which is on site in Ponte Vedra Beach.
The American Wyndhamn Clark leads the way, who once again went round on 65 strokes. He has a total of four strokes behind compatriot Xander Schauffele and Canadian Nick Taylor, who share second place.
“Felt something in the back of my neck”
World number one Scottie Scheffler felt an injury during Friday’s game. The 27-year-old from New Jersey – who is now tied for sixth – completed his round with a total of 69 strokes but was forced to sit down continuously and have his neck treated by a physiotherapist.
– I felt something in my neck, and then I tried to hit my tee shot on the twelfth and that’s when I could barely get the club back, says Scheffler according to AP.
Norén shadows Åberg
Alex Norén is the second best Swede in joint 34th place with -3, one stroke behind Åberg, after 70 strokes during Friday.
Vincent Norrman missed the qualification limit and may not play further after +6 overall (77-73)
It is by far the best starting field that can be found and extra prize money with, among other things, 45 million kroner for the winner.
