PINEHURST, N.C. -- Bryson DeChambeau turned Pinehurst No. 2 into a one-man show Saturday in the U.S. Open.

When he wasn't smashing eight drives of 340 yards or more, he was getting his right hip worked on between holes. He pumped fists and entertained thousands of sunbaked fans on his way to a 3-under 67 and a three-shot lead going into the final round.

At stake is a chance to capture a second U.S. Open title with a reimagined game, still powerful as ever, and a physique that isn't quite the "Incredible Bulk" he was at Winged Foot in 2020.
