2020 U.S. Open leaderboard breakdown: Matthew Wolff goes way low, aims to be youngest champ since Bobby Jones The third round of the 120th U.S. Open is in the books, and we've got some separation at the top of the leaderboard with Matthew Wolff (-5) and Bryson DeChambeau (-3) using Saturday to break out into their own tier with 18 holes left of action remaining. Wolff began his day four strokes off the lead and ended it with a two-stroke lead in the most impressive outing of the afternoon. Wolff's 5-under 65 tied for the best 18-hole score of the week at Winged Foot as he sliced through a star-studded leaderboard and perfectly positioned himself to win his first major championship on Sunday. His 54-hole score of 205 matches the lowest during a U.S. Open at Winged Foot in 36 years. While Wolff may have mostly been unaffected, Winged Foot has a way of humbling even the hottest of golfers, which may come to haunt him and DeChambeau on Sunday. We saw it take down 36-hole leader Patrick Reed, who dropped to T8 with a third-round 76 to enter Sunday trailing by seven. He's among the biggest names still in contention but looking to play catch-up, some despite impressive rounds of their own on Saturday. 1. Matthew Wolff (-5): Fairways hit are usually a meaningful stat. For Wolff, at least on Saturday, it was not. He hit just 2 of 14 fairways on the day and still carded a 65 to lead the field. The way he strikes it and the way he scrambles so effortlessly portends well for him closing this thing out with some hardware on Sunday, which would make him the first player to win in his U.S. Open debut since Francis Ouimet did it … 107 years ago tomorrow. Wolff would also be the youngest U.S. Open winner since Bobby Jones in 1923. 2. Bryson DeChambeau (-3): Huge day, huge finish, huge golfer. DeChambeau started his day bogey-bogey but only had one other bogey -- on No. 18 -- the rest of his day. He played with total control and leveraged his length masterfully. Birdies on 16 and 17, despite the final bogey, should send him to Sunday feeling confident as ever that he can close this and steal it from Wolff. And he can do just that. 3. Louis Oosthuizen (-1): Second under-par round of the week for Oosthuizen, who finished with a 2-under 68, but this was his most complete round. Led the field in greens in regulation and was top five in strokes gained putting on the day. Pair of bogeys on the back sullied what was otherwise a brilliant outing. 2020 U.S. Open TV schedule, channel, coverage, live stream, watch online, golf streaming times The first of six majors to be played over the course of the 2020-21 season, the 2020 U.S. Open is fully underway, teeing off in September for the first time in more than a century. The USGA's signature event has a new television home as the U.S. Open returns to NBC's airwaves and Yanni's classic theme song is played again. As for the second golf major to be held amid the COVID-19 pandemic, it has already been an incredible couple of days at Winged Foot as the best golfers in the world are taking on a fun yet difficult course looking for major glory and a share of the $12.5 million purse. Though a few were forced to withdraw amid positive tests and injuries, none was more notable than two-time champion Brooks Koepka (2018-19), whose string of injuries also forced him out of the FedEx Cup Playoffs.
