Rory McIlroy finally spoke to the media at the U.S. Open Saturday. The reigning Masters champion argued he's "earned the right to do whatever" he choses.

Burns, a 28-year-old from Louisiana, has five PGA Tour titles, the last one more than two years ago. Despite that, he leads the quartet under par through 54 holes.

Sam Burns has the lead in the U.S. Open on a rain-soaked Oakmont course and faces his biggest test. The 28-year-old from Louisiana has never contended in 20 previous majors.

The National Weather Service reports that the weather in the Oakmont, Pennsylvania, area on Sunday is expected to feature rain showers in the morning and scattered showers throughout the day, with a high of around 76 degrees.

Rory McIlroy didn’t sugarcoat it — his game has been far from sharp through three rounds at the U.S. Open. The four-time major champion sits at 10-over heading into Sunday, acknowledging the struggles that have defined his week.

Rory McIlroy has described his performance at the US Open as "pretty average" as he shot a 74 on Saturday to fall back to 10 over.

Well inside the cut line with four holes to play in his second round, a pair of late double bogeys left Lefty's 34th US Open done after 36 holes.

When Viktor Hovland sliced his opening shot in the the third round of the U.S. Open all the way into the bushes, he had no good options. He took a penalty stroke, dropped onto a muddy cart path and managed to hit through some of Oakmont's few remaining trees on his way to a bogey.
