A PGA Championship missing star power got the best in golf on moving day as Scottie Scheffler delivered a clinic over the tough closing stretch to seize command at Quail Hollow.
Australians Adam Scott and Cam Davis set themselves up for top-10 finishes but the chasing pack will be playing catch-up on championship Sunday after Scheffler surged three shots clear with a majestic six-under-par 65.
Scheffler started his big run with a three wood to just inside three feet on the reachable par-4 14th for an eagle, causing so much hysteria that Bryson DeChambeau had to back off his putt across the lake at the 17th.
