ORLANDO, Fla. — Scottie Scheffler was six shots behind, losing ground and nearly losing his mind on another tough day at Bay Hill. What saved him was his putter — yes, his putter — that allowed him to end Saturday with a share of the lead with Shane Lowry.
Zalatoris had a five-shot lead over the field at one point, only to make two double bogeys over the final five holes that allowed everyone to catch up, and others — Rory McIlroy, for one — to stay alive. But then Zalatoris ended 42 consecutive holes without a bogey by failing to save par from a bunker on the 14th. That was only the start.
All those birdies early, the big mess late, and it added to a 71. Even so, he was still just two shots behind as Zalatoris tries to make a remarkable return from back problems. Corey Connors of Listowel, Ont., is the top Canadian. He's tied for 11th at 4 under. Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., is tied for 20th at 2 under and Mackenzie Hughes of Hamilton, Ont., is tied for 39th at 1 over. Adam Hadwin of Abbotsford is tied for 53rd at 4 over.
That's what Bay Hill has come to resemble. The tropical weather feels like March. The demanding conditions feels like a U.S. Open in June.
