Wyndham Clark lost the lead with a double bogey on the first hole at Bellerive. And then he left Rory McIlroy, Gary Woodland and everyone else behind at the BMW Championship. Clark shot a 65 despite a bogey on the final hole. That gives him a five-shot lead going into the final round as the U.S. Open champion goes for his third win this year. McIlroy had three straight birdies late in his round for a 65. Patrick Cantlay shot a 66 in his bold bid to move into the top 30 and qualify for the Tour Championship.
