AKRON, Ohio – A pair of former major champions are poised to battle it out for the title at the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational. Here’s what You Oughta Know heading into the final round at Firestone Country Club, where Jim Furyk and Justin Rose share the lead:
- Furyk has a stellar record on the South Course, but he has yet to win on one of his favorite venues in 16 attempts. He finished second at this event in both 2001 and 2012.
- This is the 10th time since 2011 that Furyk carries at least a share of the 54-hole lead into the final round, the most of any player across that span.
