The way the first two rounds of the 2023 U.S. Open went, it seemed as though there could be a good deal of records being set. There had been three aces through the first two rounds, one shy of tying the U.S. Open mark, and a pair of golfers made history by carding the lowest score in a U.S. Open round.
Saturday showed that things won’t always be so easy. After seven golfers tallied rounds of 65 or lower on the first two days, no one finished lower than 66 in Saturday’s third round. And the record for aces stayed intact — at least for another day.

The leaders following the end of Saturday’s round are two golfers without a major to their name: Rickie Fowler and Wyndham Clark. Hot on their tails are two golfers with plenty of experience hunting for titles. Rory McIlroy will come into Sunday hoping to leave with his second U.S. Open title, while Scottie Scheffler, the world’s No. 1 golfer, will look for his first U.S. Open victory and second major win.

After a tougher day, Los Angeles Country Club is proving that anything can happen. Eagles have been scored on six different holes — including one that featured the three aces — and golfers have averaged scores below par on six holes. Given the volatility of the course, the 2023 U.S. Open remains anyone’s tournament, even with Fowler and Clark taking 10-under scores into Sunday.

U.S. Open live updates, highlights from Sunday’s Round 4
(All times Eastern.)
6:30 p.m.: A perfect par start through the first five for Scheffler. It seems as though everyone is waiting for his run to start, but the status quo will have to do for now.
6:25 p.m.: Back to the lead! Clark knocks down a birdie at the 4th to jump back out in front. He’s getting to go through this final round quietly so far with the attention focused on the other big names.
6:12 p.m.: Fowler finishes the third with another par. He’s been tentative so far with the putter and erratic with everything else. He’ll need to settle in soon.
6:02 p.m.: The second hole claims both participants in the final pair. Clark hands the lead right back and Fowler settles for a bogey to drop a shot.
5:55 p.m.: Fleetwood’s bid for history has fallen short. He ran out of steam at the end and will put a 63 on the scorecard. At one point, it looked like he’d be in position to shoot a 61, which would’ve been a record.

5:45 p.m.: Harris English was hoping to find his way to the top of the leaderboard today. Instead he’s off to a nightmare start. English was able to save himself after a wayward tee shot on the first hole, but double bogeys the second. He played that hole like someone would on a miniature golf course.
5:44 p.m.: After McIlroy got off to a fast start with a birdie on the opening hole, Fowler found some trouble off the tee, but is able to save par. Clark knocks down a birdie though and grabs hold of the solo lead.

5:34 p.m.: And now Fowler has teed off alongside Wyndham Clark, the final pair of the day to get underway. Buckle up for what should be a fun ride to the finish.
5:28 p.m.: Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy have now joined the program, leaving only two golfers yet to tee off.

4:59 p.m.: Tommy Fleetwood, WOW! What a moment for the Englishman who is now 6 under through 14 holes. The eagle on 14 is his second of the day and rockets him into the top five with a few more holes left to place. According to NBC, he is only the 9th player since 1990 with multiple eagles in a round in the U.S. Open.

4:55 p.m.: It hasn’t been a fun few days for Billy Horschel, but at least he’ll have this highlight to look back on.
Quite the birdie, Billy! 🐥@BillyHo_Golf #USOpen pic.twitter.com/e9obIkD8tE

4:50 p.m.: All eyes are on Rickie Fowler today and Justin Thomas has a prediction. He’s going with Fowler to finish the job. If that were to happen, Fowler will have held the lead after every round of the U.S. Open.
Front 9 full of fireworks. I think Xander makes a run, Rory gets off to a hot start, becomes a 2 man battle between Rory and Rick. Whoever plays 13-16 the best is in the driver seat. My guess is Rick gets it done at -11. Excited to watch!

4:10 p.m.: Another arrival for someone that’s in striking position to win the U.S. Open. And who else would it be? Scottie Scheffler is all business and his history in the tournament is a big reason for that. Can the world’s top golfer get the job done on the big stage today?

3:56 p.m.: Fleetwood continues his hot start and is rocketing up the leaderboard through the front nine, moving into the top ten thanks to a birdie at the 9th.

3:22 p.m.: This is looking like a good day for golfers early on Sunday. There have been two eagles already, starting with Tommy Fleetwood on the sixth hole, and later from Eckroat on the eighth.

3:03 p.m.: Austin Eckroat continues his impressive start to Sunday with a fourth birdie, this one on the sixth hole. He opened the day at 2 over, but has now moved up to 2 under and into a tie for 12th.
1:33 p.m.: Much ado is being made about the weather: It’s cloudy, and the marine layer seems to be softening up the course through the early players. It should clear up and stiffen up the course later in the day.
12:49 p.m.: Sixth hole may be one to watch in Round 4, with the hole location for Round 4 in a pretty dangerous spot close to a bunker and a nice, thick rough.
12:15 p.m.: Just past noon on the east coast, and Adam Hadwin and Abraham Ancer are set to tee off at 12:18 p.m., one of the day’s featured groups. Co-leaders Rickie Fowler and Wyndham Clark are set for a 5:30 p.m. ET tee time. Both enter Round 4 at -10.
