Brooks Koepka conquered the rain at Oak Hill on Saturday and now, six weeks after squandering a final-round Masters lead, gets a re-do of sorts as he takes a lead into the final round of the PGA Championship.
On a challenging day in which only nine players broke par, Koepka fired a four-under 66 for the second consecutive day, making him the first player in PGA Championship history to have the outright best round twice in the same championship.
Koepka has held the 54-hole lead/co-lead in a major on four previous occasions but in his most recent one, at the Masters in April, he let slip a two-shot cushion. "To just never think the way I thought going into the final round. I think that was a big thing for me but other than that I think even having - learning what I learned at Augusta kind of helped today," said Koepka.
