Promotions Round 3

Richard T. Lee continued his remarkable week in Lecanto, firing a 7-under-par 64 in the third round to seize the lead at the 54-hole mark.

Lee’s mastery of the Quarry Course has been the story of the tournament; he notched five birdies on the back nine alone to open up a two-shot cushion. His consistency has placed him as the heavy favorite to claim the medalist honors and the first of the three available LIV Golf wild card spots.

The chase for the remaining two spots is incredibly tight. Anthony Kim produced his best golf of the week when it mattered most, carding a 5-under-par 66 to move into a tie for second place at 9-under-par.

Kim’s round was highlighted by a spectacular eagle on the par-5 14th, much to the delight of the growing Florida galleries. He is joined in second by Sweden's Björn Hellgren, whose steady 66 has him dreaming of a move to the global stage.

A further three shots back, a group including Lucas Bjerregaard and Kieran Vincent remains in the hunt at 6-under, setting the stage for a high-pressure finale where a single mistake on the quarry holes could shift the entire 2026 roster.
