The 23-year-old from Bangkok fired a three-under par 67 Saturday to share second on five-under 205 entering Sunday's final round at firm and dry Bethpage Black. Jazz shattered that idea, and while his 54-hole total is seven strokes behind leader Brooks Koepka, this week is already a success. Jazz, whose only other US event was the 2017 US PGA Colonial in Texas, is loving the vocal New York crowds. With a strong PGA showing likely to vault him up the point list, Jazz might find himself going against Masters champion and 15-time major winner Woods before the year is over. Woods, 43, won his first major title at the Masters in 1997 -- when Jazz was just 17 months old.
