America’s Sam Burns will take a one-shot lead into Sunday’s final round of the US Open after a terrific finish to the third round at Oakmont. The 28-year-old world number 22 carded three birdies and two bogeys in his one-under 69 as he maintained his overnight lead and moved to four under par. Playing partner JJ Spaun was level with Burns for much of the round but bogeyed the final hole to end the day as he started it, one shot back. Alongside Spaun at three under par is 2013 Masters champion Adam Scott.

The world’s top two players Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy were among those battling to make the weekend and both did enough to make the cut.
