Triple bogey for Oosthuizen on 17
That is him out of contention for the win, and also his team, Stinger GC, who drop into third place, seven shots off Legion XIII.
Oosthuizen hit his third shot on the par-4 17th into the water
Coming out of the sand, his ball flew over the green to a watery grave. That looks to have sunk the South African’s victory chances.
Burmester back in solo lead
Expect that win probability to change again. It had him and Garcia both on 39% before Burmester’s last shot.
