In the event Finau comes back to the field, Ben Taylor is best positioned to give chase.

Taylor has never finished in the top 10 during his PGA Tour career, but there’s a good chance that changes Sunday. He shot a 5-under 66 on Saturday,  the low round of the afternoon. He had six birdies and one bogey, which came on the 10th. He sits solo second at 11 under.

His final birdie, a 21-foot putt on the 18th hole, capped a career-low-tying round on Tour.

Although Finau has a big lead, Taylor isn’t backing down.

“Yeah, for sure. I mean, it’s when you get conditions like this, anything can happen, right,” Taylor said. “There’s some low scores out there today that would prove that, so I think we will be in for a good Sunday.”

Wyndham Clark, Justin Rose and Tyson Alexander are each at 8 under.
