    A massive shot coming up for Rory McIlroy. He will want this final round to be 25 holes long considering the streak he is on.

    But he has only four holes left after this one.

    He needs to take every opportunity to tighten the screws on the leaders.

    Only one place to be around Chambers Bay and that is wherever Rory McIlroy is hitting a golf ball.

    The world number one cracks down a 360-yard tee shot on the par-four 14th. His second is to within six feet. A putt for birdie next...

    Pure 24-carat golf from his club face at the moment.

    Stephen Collins: "RORY RORY RORY! The swagger is back. This is why he is genuinely one of the best sportsmen on the planet. #USopen #bbcgolf #GoOnRors"

    James Bamford: "Boom Rory! This is getting interesting! Play off anyone? #bbcgolf #USOpen2015"

    The encouraging thing for Rory McIlroy is that there has not been many signs of the stardust from the men above him on the leaderboard.

    Jordan Spieth - one man who could take him out of contention with a stellar run - sprays his tee shot left on the fourth. He has been short of his best so far today.

    Dustin Johnson's birdie putt from four feet on the par-three third wriggles by.

    We could see McIlroy become the first man shoot a 62 in a major championship today.

    Holy moly! This just got serious.

    Rory McIlroy with a monster of a putt, a giant 50-foot python for birdie. He will do well to leave himself a comfortable par putt.

    But he is playing a different game to everyone else today.

    Perfect weight, perfect read and the ball drops into the centre of the hole with its last ounce of momentum.

    Two under, five holes to go, only two off the lead. Those are makeable numbers now.

    An eight-footer for birdie for Dustin Johnson on the second.

    Ohh, it takes the the edge of the hole like a roundabout, finally deciding to take the third exit and stay up after completing almost a complete lap of the rim.

    He and Day take their pars.

    Rory McIlroy's approach on 13 has zeroed in on the flag, but it needs some brakes. And Chambers Bay is a slippy as a skidpan. His ball bounds though to the back and he has a long way back for his birdie putt. He'll take a par if he was offered it in fact.

    Jordan Spieth on the par-three third, but that tee shot is a little too fruity. Rolling around at the back of the green, instead of the bothering the flag at the front.

  14. McIlroy moves to -1published at 23:17 British Summer Time 21 June 2015

    Rory McIlroy is rumbling up this leaderboard in ominous style.

    The world number one picks his way through a minefield 12th green rolling his lengthy eagle putt, down a bank, off a slope and to within four feet.

    I have seen less elaborate marble runs than that putt.

    He putts out to chalk off another stroke and move to one under. Three shots off the leaders and with six holes over which to make further inroads.

  15. Horschel on the greenspublished at 23:15 British Summer Time 21 June 2015

    As for the greens, Horschel said: "I'm not going to hold my tongue on this. This is very disappointing to hold a championship-calibre tournament on greens like this..

    They are among "the worst he has ever putted on" and he has "lost a little bit of respect for the USGA".

    He added that a caddie was asked if there was any grass on the fourth green. The caddie replied: "Yeah, two blades, and they're not even close to each other."

    America's Billy Horschel had a three-under 67 to finish at four over but he then spent a good 15 minutes letting rip at the USGA about the course.

    Here's a brief summation of his issues: "It's been a frustrating week for a lot of players. We don't complain a lot but when we do we deserve to be listened to.

    Referring to the limited or no access to some holes, he added: "It blows my mind that they would build a golf course and not think about the fans."

    In the last group on course, Dustin Johnson and Jason Day have both taken pars from the first.

    They clamber up hill and down dale to make the second tee. Johnson with good opener, skipping down the left fringe. Day is also safe and sound down the middle.

  19. Lowry & Oosthuizen back to level parpublished at 23:12 British Summer Time 21 June 2015

    That group of four that started the day on one under has disintegrated quickly.

    Shane Lowry's bogey four on three and Louis Oosthuizen's dropped shot on two have taken them both back to level par.

    After a double bogey on the first, JB Holmes has handed back another stroke on two to slip to two over.

    Rory McIlroy on the driveable par-four 12th. He has caught that sweet. A little too sweet. The ball is on line but bounds up onto the top deck of the two-tier green.
