Justin Thomas made history on Saturday at the 2017 U.S. Open in Erin, Wisconsin, shooting a nine-under par 63, but he still finds himself in a three-way tie for second place and one shot behind leader Brian Harman at 12 under par.
Per the PGA Tour, Thomas' nine-under par set a new U.S. Open record for a low score relative to par. The previous record was held by Johnny Miller at eight under par in 1973.
When the third round began, Thomas was barely a thought at Erin Hills. The 24-year-old was in 24th place with a respectable score of two-under par.
