PGA Championship 2026: PGA of America may have opened up the setup at Aronimink Golf Club, but that did not open up the crammed PGA Championship leaderboard Saturday. Alex Smalley rallied on the back nine to shoot a 2-under-par 68 and build a two-shot lead, but nearly two dozen golfers are in striking range after the third round of the second major of the year.
If Smalley were to lift the Wanamaker Trophy on Sunday night, it would mark one of the biggest upsets in recent major golf history. Smalley, 29, is playing just his fifth major and has never finished better than T23. The Rochester, N.Y., native also has yet to win a PGA Tour event in 140 starts.
