Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the No Lega podcast live show presented, as always, by our friends at Titleist. I am Solly, joined by my esteemed colleague, Mr. Big Randy. Hello, Big. I'm back, boys. Hello. Excited to talk some G. Some G, some dub, some grape, maybe open it up tonight. DJ Pie is here. Hello, DJ. Hello, Solly. Uh, good to be with you, my man. Let's, let's get into it. Neil was out there today. He is going to be joining us, uh, hopefully here shortly, uh, from, I believe from the media center, uh, there in South Hampton. He was one of three people left on the grounds there. I think by the end of the day, uh, tonight's show brought to you by Titleist and the new GTS drivers. You can find out more about that at Titleist.com.
I cannot say enough great things about these drivers, uh, I'm going to continue to try, but I cannot say enough great things about them. Titleist.com to find out more. GTS driver, get one, get fit, do something. You got to try it. You got to. Deej, set us up. What are we talking about tonight?
Yeah, guys, I think issuing a correction on a previous post of mine, you do got to hand it to him.
You got to hand it to him.
Wyndham Clark is seven under par through 54 holes at the United States Open. Scotty Scheffler, Sahid Tagala, and Tom Kim at one under. Nobody else is under par. Some good news for Wyndham here. In each of the last 27 U.S. Opens, count them. The eventual winner was either leading or within four strokes of the lead at the end of the third round. Nobody is within four shots. Nobody's within five shots of Wyndham Clark at this point. Wyndham has tied, I believe, the fourth largest U.S. Open 54-hole lead. Of course, Tiger Woods led by 10 in 2000. Rory McIlroy led by eight in 2011. And Randy's got long, big, huge Jim Barnes led by seven in 1921. Wyndham joins the group of leaders that have led by six. There's a good stat.
This is the only stat at this point. 39 players have had a five-plus shot lead entering the final round of a major championship. 33 went on to win. The last player that didn't do it, of course, the guy that a lot of people are going to be thinking about tomorrow, the guys that a lot of people might be hoping to see referenced tomorrow, 1999 Open Championship at Carnoustie, Jean van de Velde. Wyndham Clark just absolutely went out and suffocated this thing, man. I mean, he saved par from... He did exactly what he had to do to stay in the position that he's in. Solly, what sticks out to you about the way Dub is playing right now?
I mean, he looks the part. You do just straight up got to hand it to him, man. I know it is not the storyline we were hoping for, the storyline a lot of people watching are hoping for, the storyline a lot of people listening to this were hoping for. But, I mean, what you ask of somebody for U.S. Open, he's had a massive lead for like 48 hours now. Right. And comes out, you know, and he's got to wait till 345 to tee off today. Bogeys the first hole and just like plays really solid golf birdied five bogeyed eight and then had a bunch of opportunities where this thing could have slipped away on 10. He made the mistake that a lot of people made on 10 today, but he gets up and down from long there, gets up and down on 11.
What did Neil observe on the ground during the U.S. Open?
incredible bunker shot there you know pars 12 makes a great scramble again on 13 like that was where he I saw this out there was like a 5% chance he was going to make all of I think Rick run good tweet that he's going to make 5% chance he was going to make all those putts and he did it man and then has like we thought Scotty had the highlights of the day and Wyndham steps up and hits like the shot of the day into 16 and makes Eagle Bogey's 18 to make it just a little bit more interesting, and he missed a four-footer for par on 15 to make it not a complete, complete runaway. Let me ask you guys this. DataGolf says 71.6% chance of winning right now.
