England’s Aaron Rai is this week competing in his 13th major championship at the 108th PGA Championship at Aronimink.

Rai, 31, has superbly put himself into contention to win at the game’s highest level, posting a third round 67 and near day’s end was tied for the lead at four-under.

Rai made his major’s debut at the 2017 US Open while four years later he teed-up in a maiden PGA Championship.  His best result in the dozen majors has been three T19th places – 2021 Open, T19th at the 2024 US Open and then also a similiar finish at last year’s PGA Championship.

Rai is an eight-time pro career champion including having captured last year’s Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship.

He posted earlier Aronimink rounds of 70, 69 and kick-started day three with birdies at the first and second holes along with four other birdies in a round of 67 for his four-under tally.

Rai’s effort see’s him sharing four-under with four others including German Matti Schmid (65), Canadian Nick Taylor (65),  Spaniard Jon Rahm (67) and Swede Ludwig Aberg (68).

American Alex Smalley birdie had moved his 10th, 13th and 15th holes and go to five-under through 15 holes.
