Ryu admitted that she did not know she was on the verge of a sub-60 round until she counted the scorecard after her final putt.

"I don't (count) my score on the green today, so that's why I don't know on the hole 18," Ryu said.

"But after the putt and I counted my score with my caddie. Oh, my God, it's 11-under par today. It was so amazing. My caddie says, 'yep.' Yeah, I'm so happy right now."

Ryu recorded nine birdies and an eagle on the par-4 sixth hole en route to her 60 — one stroke better than a trio of other finishes in major championship history — all at the Evian. Hyo Joo Kim set the record in 2014 before Jeongeun Lee6 and Leona Maguire matched it in 2021.

The 25-year-old Ryu now finds herself on the verge of capturing her second major in three weeks. The win at the Women's PGA Championship on June 28 was the first victory in a major.

"Yeah, that is amazing, amazing dream," she said. "So I just want to that one come true, but we have one more day and Aki is pretty good player and everybody is so good."

Iwai collected eight birdies against two bogeys to remain in contention.

"Yes, today also I made solid day. I gave many birdies, many birdie chances today," she said. "So, yeah, it was really fun. I play with Haeran. She's on fire, so pretty good."

Brooke Henderson (64) of Canada and Mao Saigo (67) of Japan sit in a third-place tie, seven strokes behind Ryu. Henderson recorded eagles on the seventh and 15th holes to highlight her round and help to counter three bogeys.

South African Casandra Alexander elevated into fifth place at 11-under by carding a 63, while Thailand's Jeeno Thitikul (67), Japan's Miyu Yamashita (67) and second-round leader Lottie Woad (72) of England sit in a tie for sixth place at 10-under.

Fitzpatrick surges at Scottish Open

Golfers tried to stick to their routines during a chaotic third round of the fog-hampered Genesis Scottish Open and that will be the goal as the remainder of the tournament plays out this weekend.

Michael Thorbjornsen and England's Matt Fitzpatrick are tied at 11 under through a partial third round after play was suspended in North Berwick, Scotland.

That sets up a potential long day of play Sunday at The Renaissance Club, where wind and rain were among the topics during the on-and-off third round.

Johnny Keefer shot 6-under-par 64 to become the leader in the clubhouse at 10 under. Others at 10 under are Kevin Roy (through 16 holes), Clark (through 15), defending champion Chris Gotterup (through 10), Australia's Min Woo Lee (through eight) and England's Jordan Smith (through seven).

Smith was the second-round co-leader along with Northern Ireland's Rory McIlroy and South Korea's Tom Kim.

A fog delay of about 2½ hours in the morning shortly after play began put the round off schedule and caused most of the field to have revised tee times.

Mac Meissner shot 64 and moved to within one stroke of the lead at 8 under before many of the groups even began their third rounds.

Play was halted again in the early evening because of fog and wasn't resumed. Tournament officials have set 7 a.m. local time Sunday as the targeted time to resume the third round.

Glover hangs onto narrow lead at ISCO

Lucas Glover shot a 2-under-par 68 to remain in first place at the ISCO Championship at Hurstbourne Country Club in Louisville, Ky.

Glover shot his worst round of the tournament after carding a 63 and 64 on Friday and Saturday, respectively. But his day still left him two strokes under par, 15 under for the tournament and featured an eagle and two birdies. More importantly, he held onto the lead he has now maintained through three rounds.

The 46-year-old stepped up to the par-5, 566-yard seventh a stroke over par. But his first two shots left him within a few feet of the hole, and he calmly sank the putt for an eagle that put him back on track for another stellar round.

Birdies on Holes 10 and 12 ensured another good day and another lead for the pro seeking his first win of the 2026 season. A win would be his seventh on the PGA Tour overall.

Aaron Wise made up two shots on the leader on Saturday, firing a 4-under 66 to get to within a shot of the pole position. Wise had six birdies on the day.

Three golfers are tied for third at 13 under, among them Germany's Stephan Jaeger, who carded a 5-under 65, one of the better rounds of the day. He balanced six birdies against a solitary bogey.

He's joined by Steven Fisk and Chan Kim, who shot matching 68s on Saturday.

Johnson leads entering final round of Kaulig

On a day that challenged the rest of the leaders, Zach Johnson dominated the third round of the Kaulig Companies Championship to take a four- stroke lead into the final round at Akron, Ohio.

Johnson, who entered the day a stroke back of the lead, shot 7-under-par 63 to reach 13-under 197. That strong, bogey-free performance began at the onset, with birdies on four of the first five holes to kick off a 5-under front nine at Firestone Country Club.

The two-time PGA major winner only became eligible for PGA Tour Champions events in February. He's already won two Champions events this year and would move up from third to second in the Charles Schwab Cup standings should he hold on to win Sunday.

While he hasn't won a PGA Tour event since 2015, Johnson finished tied for ninth at last week's John Deere Classic and feels he's been in strong form for quite awhile now.

While Johnson finished with seven birdies and no bogeys Saturday, he didn't have the best round of the day. That belonged to Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez, who shot 8 under to sit alone in second place at 9 under for the tournament.

Round 2 leader Cameron Percy of Australia (70) shot even-par and sits six strokes back of Johnson in solo third place at 7 under. He's followed by Tag Ridings and Northern Ireland's Darren Clarke, who both shot 68 and are tied for fourth at 6 under.
