Rory McIlroy turned in a vintage performance on Friday at the PGA Championship 2026, roaring back into contention at Aronimink Golf Club. After a rocky start, the four-time major winner now sits just five shots off the lead, declaring himself "right in the tournament."

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler is lurking dangerously close, two strokes back at -2, while Ludvig Aberg joins him in that tie. The leaderboard is packed with firepower: Hideki Matsuyama, Chris Gotterup, Aldrich Potgieter, Stephan Jaeger, Min Woo Lee, and Max Greyserman are all within striking distance at -3.

At the top, Maverick McNealy and Alex Smalley share the halfway lead at -4, but the big names are closing fast. With the major championship wide open heading into the weekend, Saturday's "moving day" promises plenty of drama.

Here are the key third-round tee times for Saturday at Aronimink:

Early starters:
1:30 PM BST – Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen (Den), Daniel Berger
1:57 PM BST – Kristoffer Reitan (Nor), Padraig Harrington (Irl)

Coverage begins at 3:00 PM BST on Saturday via Sky Sports Golf, with the final round starting at 4:00 PM BST on Sunday. For fans looking to gear up like the pros, this weekend's action is the perfect excuse to refresh your golf wardrobe with performance apparel that keeps you comfortable from the first tee to the 18th green.
