With a remarkable performance, Burns is one step away from obtaining his first major title.\n\nBurns, with two stumbles on the field, achieved a 69 (-1) in the third round. His impeccable game positions him as the leader, with a crucial advantage heading into Sunday.\n\nThe golfer, who has never won a major in his previous 20 participations, will face Sunday&#8217;s pressure alongside Adam Scott, the experienced 44-year-old Australian golfer. Scott, with a solid performance, remains expectant.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n\n<p>\u201cIt seemed like we were going back and forth,\u201d said J.J. Spaun. \u201cHe would take the lead, I would take the lead, I would fall back, whatever. But it was fun. You can&#8217;t really play against your opponent; you have to play this course. There&#8217;s a lot on the line with every shot.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<cite>J.J. Spaun<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nThe fight for the title promises to be intense, with only four players under par. J.J. Spaun and Viktor Hovland also remain in the fight, awaiting a mistake from Burns.\n\nCarlos Ortiz delivered a standout performance, with a streak of 30 holes without bogeys. Although he finished with a 67, he remains in contention.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a4.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0615%2Fr1506709_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"Sam Burns, quien tiene una ventaja de un golpe en el US Open, es uno de los cuatro jugadores bajo par despu\u00e9s de tres rondas.\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\nSam Burns, with a strategic game and a firm mindset, demonstrated his ability to handle pressure. The golfer, with five PGA Tour titles, seeks to add a new achievement to his career.\n\nIn contrast, Scottie Scheffler, the world number one, failed to find his rhythm and is eight strokes behind Burns.\n\nThe weather conditions, after heavy rain, softened the greens and the rough, offering an additional challenge to the players.\n\nBurns, with a smart strategy, avoided the traps of the course and took advantage of the opportunities to score birdies. His determination puts him in a privileged position for Sunday.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sam Burns Approaches Glory at the US Open In a day marked by adverse conditions at Oakmont, Sam Burns demonstrated composure and precision, solidifying his position for the final round of the US Open.
