Through three days of golf at Pinehurst #2, Martin Kaymer has been in the lead, shooting a U.S. Open record the first two days with back-to-back five-under-par 65s, then holding on yesterday by shooting a 72. That was two over par, but considering the trouble he got into, and out of, at a pair of holes, it was an impressive performance nonetheless. The German golfer begins today with a five-shot lead over his nearest competitors, U.S. golfers Erik Compton and Rickie Fowler, and his strategy and play, and theirs, ought to make this a truly exciting final round at the U.S. Open.
