Bogey for Pavonpublished at 20:46 British Summer Time
Vegas -6, Pavon -5, Fitzpatrick -5 (6)
Matthieu Pavon's long run of bogey-free holes ends. The Frenchman had not dropped a shot for 29 holes but he can't get up and down from just off the sixth green after pushing his iron left from the tee.
The 2022 US Open winner Matt Fitzpatrick also chipped on from the front edge but makes a much better job of it, clipping into two feet to secure his three.

MacIntyre -2 (7)
Robert MacIntyre will have hoped to find some upward momentum on "moving day" but, sadly for the Scot, he's dropped back the other way.
After bogeying the first two holes of the day, he dropped another shot on the fourth but got it straight back on the fifth to be two under par overall.

Scottie Scheffler's feeling it now - even from the sand at the sixth he's going after everything, and he almost holes it as he plays a beautiful bunker shot to easily save par in the end.

DeChambeau -6 (9)

I suspect Bryson DeChambeau was in between clubs but that second shot is playing into the wind and the pin is at the back
It's a good miss going slightly long - but not that far!
Strange to see him getting it quite so far wrong.

DeChambeau -6 (9)
Goodness me - Bryson DeChambeau has sent his second shot with a three wood through the back of the 10th green.
That hole is 606 yards long, by the way.
Immense power.

Kim Si-woo still leads the way on seven under but there are 15 players behind within three shots of the lead.
This is shaping up nicely.
Tee trouble for McIlroy leads to bogeypublished at 20:32 British Summer Time
McIlroy +1 (6*)
Having birdied the 14th, Rory McIlroy goes well right - out of bounds, in fact - with his tee shot on 15.
He recovers to almost chip in for par but he walks off the par five with a bogey six.
Postpublished at 20:28 British Summer Time
DeChambeau -6 (9)
A great shot from just off the back off the ninth green leaves Bryson DeChambeau with a tap-in par.
Out in 32, three under for the day, no bogeys on the card.
And then he bisects the fairway with his drive on the 606-yard par-five 10th - every chance he could be in a share of the lead shortly.
Noren in contentionpublished at 20:26 British Summer Time
Noren -5 (9)
Alex Noren made a flying finish to his front nine with back-to-back birdies on seven and eight putting the Swede on five under as he makes the turn.
Just two off the lead.
Postpublished at 20:24 British Summer Time
SW Kim -7, Homa -4, Scheffler -6 (5)
Not the best from two of the leading players here on the par-three sixth, as Si Woo Kim has missed the green left and Scottie Scheffler has found the bunker.
His ball came in from a great height too so we'll have to see how it's sitting as he tries to save his par.

Oh Nial...
Some of us have had to order in a Chinese takeaway this evening.
A shade over £24 for salt & pepper chicken, beef & green peppers in blackbean sauce, chips, fried rice and spring rolls.

BBC Sport NI at Quail Hollow
Sunburned, stuffed, and sipping free lemonade, the fans this week are in golfing heaven - forget the Wanamaker Trophy.
With 30°C heat, top golfers like Rory and Scottie strolling by, and every ticket a Championship+ (free food and non-alcoholic drinks!) it’s a dream.
Fans are piling plates with hot dogs and cookies, grinning like they’ve won a major. I overheard one fan saying, “I came for the golf but stayed for the fries!”
But needless to say with prices from $262 (£197) before tax for one ticket. I’d be filling my belly and merchandise bag to the brim.
Rory's first birdie of the daypublished at 20:14 British Summer Time

The driveable par-four 14th is a great scoring chance at Quail Hollow, even yielding some eagles this week.
Rory McIlroy is pin-high off the tee and just off the green - he gets up and down for a three, moving him back to level par for the tournament.
Bogey for Rahmpublished at 20:12 British Summer Time
Rahm -4 (11)
That ricochet off a spectator by the 11th green left Jon Rahm with a long up and down for par - and the Spaniard was unable to manage it.
McNealy flying up the boardpublished at 20:10 British Summer Time
McNealy -5 (7*)
Birdie. Par. Eagle. Birdie. Birdie.
That's the type of start Rory McIlroy sought but it's the scorecard of Maverick McNealy, who like his Top Gun namesake, is flying at the moment.
Incidentally, he does have a pilot's licence - and has soared up the leaderboard to two shots off the lead.
He started the day eight back!
Bogey for Fitzpatrickpublished at 20:10 British Summer Time
Vegas -6, Pavon -6, Fitzpatrick -5 (4)
Oh Fitzy!
Matt Fitzpatrick has had two looks at birdie today but now drops a shot on the par-three fourth after missing the dancefloor off the tee.
Bryson on the chargepublished at 20:09 British Summer Time
DeChambeau -6 (8)
Here we go - this is what we've been waiting for! The big names are flying!
Scottie Scheffler and Jon Rahm are going well and now Bryson DeChambeau is within one shot of the lead.
His pitch to the eighth green ends up within six feet of the hole and it's a third birdie of the day for the two-time US Open champion.
Here comes Scottie!published at 20:07 British Summer Time
SW Kim -7, Homa -4, Scheffler -6 (5)
Here he comes...the world number one makes two birdies in a row thanks to an 18 footer on the fifth for his three.
There's a few lesser lights at the top of this leaderboard, none of them will want to see Scottie Scheffler making a charge.

Rahm -5 (10)
Worrying moments as Jon Rahm's approach to the 11th is off line and strikes a spectator next to the green.
Thankfully, he appears to be OK and Rahm is straight across to check up on him.
The spectator is all smiles as they share a few good-natured words and he gets a signed glove from the two-time major champion by way of an apology.
