Theegala in Top-10 hunt entering Wyndham Championship final round
The Wyndham Championship is a big golf tournament happening in Greensboro, a city in the United States.
It is the last regular-season event on the PGA TOUR before the FedExCup Play-offs.
Golfer Sahith Theegala played three rounds and is now tied for 11th place.
He started with a fantastic 62 but followed it with two rounds of 69, which dropped him down the leaderboard.
The reporters do not agree on his exact score, with one saying he is 10-under and another saying 16-under 194.
Beau Hossler and Michael Brennan are tied for the lead after three rounds.
Tom Kim is just one shot behind them after a super round of 63.
Jordan Smith hit a very rare shot called a hole-in-one on the 16th hole and won one million reward points from the tournament sponsor.
Brooks Koepka had a rough day and will probably miss the play-offs.
The winner will be decided on Sunday, when the players play their final round.
Sahith Theegala slipped to tied-11th after a third-round 1-under 69, following his opening 8-under 62.
Reports disagree on Theegala's 54-hole total: one lists 10-under while another says 16-under 194.
Beau Hossler and Michael Brennan share the 54-hole lead at 16-under 194, one stroke ahead of Tom Kim.
Jordan Smith aced the par-3 16th with a 9-iron, earning one million reward points from sponsor Wyndham.
Brooks Koepka's season looks set to end early after a 4-over 74 left him 11 shots short of the position he needed.
