  1. All upsides for Scott

    Scott -3 (19:15 BST)

    At 44 years of age, Adam Scott could become the oldest US Open champion since Hale Irwin in 1990 if he can get the job done today.

    He's not feeling the pressure though, as with a Masters title already in his pocket he sees challenging for a second major at his age as a bonus.

    "It's all upsides," Scott said after his third round. "I'm lucky, I've won a major.

    "I'd love to win the US Open though, and fortunately the confidence is up so I should look to take advantage of it."

  2. Another birdie for Rory

    McIlroy +7 (17)

    Rory McIlroy - swinging much better today - lashes a three-wood on to the green at the short par-four 17th.

    He races his 25-foot eagle attempt well past the hole, but makes the one coming back.

    He's back to three under for the day. A birdie at the last will give him a closing 66 and something positive to take away from a dispiriting week.

  3. I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do - McIlroy

    Rory McIlroy made plenty of headlines when he opted not to speak to the media after his first two rounds at Oakmont, and then made headlines when he did speak after round three..

    "It's just frustration with you guys [some sections of the media]," the Northern Irishman said in his first post-round interview at a major since winning the Masters at Augusta in April.

    "I have been totally available for the past number of years," McIlroy added. "That [driver issue] was a part of it but at Augusta I skipped you guys on Thursday.

    "It's not out of the ordinary as I've done it before, but I am doing it a little more often. I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do."

  4. Any chance of a comeback?

    Any chance of a big comeback today? Oakmont isn't exactly an ideal course for chasing birdies, but there are chances if you find the fairway.

    And shots for the leaders can be lost in an instant.

    But the largest ever US Open final round comeback is from seven shots back, so that means only the top 10 overnight stand a chance today, what do you think?

    Here's the biggest final round comebacks in US Open history:

    • 7 shots: Arnold Palmer (72-71-72-65), Cherry Hills 1960
    • 6 shots: Johnny Miller (71-69-76-63), Oakmont 1973
    • 5 shots: Walter Hagen (78-73-75-75), Brae Burn 1919
    • 5 shots: Johnny Farrell (77-74-71-72), Olympia Fields 1928
    • 5 shots: Byron Nelson (72-73-71-68), Philadelphia CC 1939
    • 5 shots: Lee Janzen (73-66-73-68), The Olympic Club 1998

  5. Strong start for Detry

    Detry +3 (7)

    Belgium's Thomas Detry is sneaking up the leaderboard. The 32-year-old rolls in a 10-foot putt on the par three sixth to go two under and then almost birdies the seventh.

    He has made a strong start and is currently up into a tie for ninth.

  6. The outsider?

    Thriston Lawrence is supposed to have gone away by now but the gritty South African is sticking around.

    It's been a miserable year for the 28-year-old, making only three of 14 cuts worldwide before this week.

    And yet here he is, in the top seven and ranked third for strokes gained putting at the US Open.

  7. The wily veteran

    It's 22 years since Adam Scott first played in the US Open as a fresh-faced 21-year-old.

    Here's how old the rest of his competition today were when he teed off at Bethpage on 13 June 2002.

    (If you're wondering who won that year, yeah it was Mr Woods).

  8. McIlroy battling back

    Rory McIlroy has cut a forlorn and agitated figure all week, but he's at least had more to shout about today.

    The Masters champion has had five birdies and three bogeys and looks poised to card his first under-par round at Oakmont at the sixth attempt (stretching back to the 2016 tournament).

    He's currently tied for 35th.

  9. A four-way race?

    Four-way split of Sam Burns, JJ Spaun, Adam Scott and Viktor Hovland

    Each of this quartet leads the field in at least one metric through three rounds.

    Burns: Overall (second for approach and around the green)

    Spaun: Putting

    Scott: Off the tee

    Hovland: Approach and tee to green

    Leapfrog the others in one of those metrics and it could make the difference today.

  11. Watch: Rory McIlroy's fed-up interview

    Watch: Frustrated McIlroy has 'earned the right to do whatever I want'

    Rory McIlroy looked totally fed-up after round three when he gave an interesting interview shall we say, detailing his frustrations at Oakmont and his recent media blackout.

    He says he's earned the chance to do what he wants, including skipping media duties - do you agree?

  12. History-making hole

    We knew it was coming but Oakmont has indeed made their eighth hole the longest par-three in major championship history today.

    At 301 yards, it's an absolute monster - and it's stimulated plenty of discussion this week.

    So are you a fan of long par threes? Or is this distance "a gimmick"?

    Hit those thumbs.

  16. Welcome to championship Sunday!

    US OpenGetty Images

    Here it is folks! It's time to find out who will win the 125th US Open at Oakmont near Pittsburgh as the challengers prepare to get out on the course for their final rounds.

    American Sam Burns leads the way but he's just a shot ahead of compatriot JJ Spaun and veteran Australian Adam Scott.

    Viktor Hovland is the fourth man under par while Englishman Tyrrell Hatton and Scotsman Robert MacIntyre are in hot pursuit.

    Chances are we'll crown a new major champion tonight, but around a course this tough and with the pressure of getting over the line this will not be an easy task.

    Shots can vanish in an instant around here, so no lead is safe and this one will definitely not be over until it's over - so make sure you stay right here as we take you through the best of the action.
