Daniel Berger's Lead Cut to One Shot over Akshay Bhatia at Bay Hill
Daniel Berger leads at 13-under par after a rain delay paused the third round at Bay Hill; challengers Min Woo Lee and Akshay Bhatia pursue him as play resumes.
- On March 7, 2026, Daniel Berger held the clubhouse lead at 13-under and marked his ball on the par-5 16th when play was suspended at Bay Hill.
- Heavy rain produced a 66-minute delay that compressed daylight and forced play to be suspended at Bay Hill, where dead grass caused pools on the greens.
- Akshay Bhatia rolled in a clutch birdie before darkness and remained firmly in contention, while Rory McIlroy withdrew prior to his third round after muscle spasms in his lower back.
- Tournament officials scheduled a Sunday morning restart that forces quick resets before the final, with four players returning at 8 a.m. to finish third rounds, then play the final later in the day.
- With multiple contenders clustered, Bay Hill's course toughness and renewed competition set up a dramatic Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational, as Bhatia said, 'And it's not going to get any easier'.
