PGA: The Open Championship - Third Round

Billy Horschel surpassed Shane Lowry, Justin Rose, and a few others to climp to the top of the leaderboard standings at The Open Championship. Now, Horschel isn't ready to head back home without the trophy.

Until Friday, Lowry was leading the game but after Saturday’s fierce battle at the Royal Troon, Billy Horschel is sitting at the top of the leaderboard. The American entered the third round with 2-under while Lowry was at 7-under. But after Horschel dropped four birdies on Saturday, his total stood at 4-under. Lowry's poor performance resulted in 1-under after round three.

In a post-round press conference on Saturday, Billy Horschel reflected upon how he'd like to walk out with the Open Championship trophy and that he manifested this moment throughout his life.

“I love it. I've worked my entire life to be in this position. I've been in the lead many times going into a final round obviously this is a major, it means a little bit more, we all know that. We know what this means to everyone…I've done a better job this week of it or try to do a better job is sort of manifest seeing myself holding the trophy before I go to sleep every night, envisioning myself holding that trophy on 18, walking out to the crowd and being congratulated as Open Champion,” Billy Horschel said via X.

Last year, Horschel couldn't make the cutline at the Open Championship, and the year before, he finished at T21.
