In a remarkable display of skill and precision, Ryan Fox has once again started his round in ideal fashion. The talented golfer made an impressive birdie from outside 7 feet on the par-4 1st hole, bringing him to a score of 11 under and placing him just three strokes behind the current leader, Robert MacIntyre.

Fox's exceptional performance in Round 3 follows a slight setback over the second nine holes yesterday. However, among the top contenders, Fox has been displaying remarkable consistency off the tee and on approach shots, ranking within the top five in these categories throughout the week.

The 25-year-old golfer is proving to be a force to be reckoned with, showcasing his abilities and setting an example for those chasing close behind. Fox continued his impressive run by sinking a remarkable 30-foot birdie on the 2nd hole, narrowing the gap to just five strokes. On the 3rd hole, he had a golden opportunity to get within four strokes of MacIntyre, with a putt from just inside 9 feet.

The upcoming stages of the golf course offer favorable conditions, including the par-5 4th hole and the short par-4 5th hole, providing Fox with an opportunity to gain ground on the leader.

Not to be outdone, Tom Kim and Rory McIlroy also commenced their rounds with stellar birdies. Kim sank an impressive putt from approximately 21 feet, while McIlroy's birdie bid came from a distance of 15 feet. Both golfers now sit at 8 under, a mere six strokes behind MacIntyre. Their hope is that they can build momentum off each other's success, as they did in the previous day.

As the competition heats up and the leaderboard becomes increasingly crowded, the average score on the golf course is gradually decreasing. Thanks to exceptional performances from players like Zac Blair, who sits at 3 under through his first six holes, the golf course average has dipped under par.

All eyes are now set on Tom Kim and Rory McIlroy, who are poised to tee off in just under 30 minutes. With their tremendous skills and the potential to perform at their peak, spectators eagerly await their respective performances.

As the stakes continue to rise, these talented golfers are expected to deliver moments of great excitement and intense competition as they navigate the challenging course and vie for the top spot in the tournament.
