The final day of play has arrived at The Players Championship with four out of the six Canadians in the field – Corey Conners, Taylor Pendrith, Nick Taylor, and PGA Tour rookie Sudarshan Yellamaraju – still competing at TPC Sawgrass for a share of the massive $25 million purse set to be handed out on Sunday.
Pendrith got the day going for the Canadians after finishing Saturday at even-par and 1-under for the tournament. His Sunday started well, going for birdie on Hole 2, but misstepped on Holes 8 and 10 with bogeys to now sit even on the round.
Abbotsford, B.C.’s Taylor teed off next for the Canadian contingent after entering the final day 2-under for the week. His Saturday start was not ideal, bogeying on the opening hole of the day and on the 6th. He wrapped the front nine with a birdie, however, and sits 1-over on the day currently.
Winnipeg’s Yellamaraju, who surged up the leaderboard on Saturday with a red-hot start, once again was great to begin Sunday. The rookie opened his day with back-to-back birdies to start 2-under in the round.
Conners (1:10 p.m. ET) will wrap up the day for the Canadians as he enters the final day with a shot at the win. The two-time PGA Tour winner lost some ground Saturday after shooting 72, but is still in striking distance.
