- On Saturday, May 16, 2026, Rory McIlroy shot a third-round 66 at the PGA Championship at Aronimink Golf Club, recovering from his opening-round 74 to revive hopes of a second straight major title.

- Taking advantage of calmer conditions at Aronimink, McIlroy birdied the 397-yard sixth hole after driving the green and finished with six birdies on the day.
- Finishing at 3-under, McIlroy briefly shared the lead before a bogey on the 17th, positioning him for a strong challenge in Sunday's final round.
- Following his Masters victory last month, McIlroy seeks his seventh major title and aims to join Jack Nicklaus in winning the first two majors of the year in the modern rotation.
