A look up and down at the Sony Open leaderboard after three rounds and you’re likely going to notice two things:

1. the board is about as jam-packed as it can be with 21 players within five shots of the lead jointly held by Keegan Bradley and Grayson Murray . And 2. After Bradley, many of these names haven’t won much on the PGA Tour.

On the second point, while there are multiple PGA Tour winners among the group within five shots from last week’s champion Chris Kirk , to Emiliano Grillo, Kurt Kitayama and Russell Henley, there are more obscure names like the penultimate group of Matthieu Pavon, Ben Silverman and Taiga Semikawa.

Bradley plans on using his experience to his advantage.

Addiction wrecked his golf career. Now he’s on the brink of a PGA Tour victory

“This is my 14th year. Took me about 12 years until I felt like a veteran out here,” he said Saturday night. “I didn’t feel like even two, three years ago. Now I sort of feel a lot more comfortable, like days like today. Felt totally fine. I expect to be nervous tomorrow. Definitely have felt better in these situations.”

He knows the only way to emerge from the crowded pack at the top of the leaderboard is to focus on his own game.

“it is what it is,” Bradley said. “I’m trying to just worry about myself. If I go out and shoot a good round tomorrow it’s going to be tough to beat. There is a lot of great players and a lot of players within a handful of shots of the lead, so be difficult as usual.”

Of course, Bradley won’t just be playing for the chance to capture his seventh PGA Tour title. He’ll also be chasing a bigger piece of the Sony’s $8.3 million purse, namely the nearly $1.5 million winner’s share.

You can check out the entire payout breakdown for the Sony Open below, and you can view the TV schedule here . The final threesome of Bradley, Murray and Stevens tee off at 2:50 p.m. ET.

HONOLULU (AP) — Grayson Murray is a PGA Tour winner again and feels better than ever about his future. The gold trophy he won Sunday at the Sony Open with a 40-foot birdie putt in a playoff is only a small reason for that.

Murray has been sober for eight months, tired of alcohol fueling his arrogance in public and making him feel like a failure for wasting talent in his private moments.

He feels renewed through Christianity and is getting married in April to a woman that became a big part of a small support group.

No, winning didn’t change his life. But it sure provided a big boost to his career.

“My story is not finished. I think it’s just beginning,” Murray said. “I hope I can inspire a lot of people going forward that have their own issues.”

Murray always looked like the odd-man out in a three-way battle at the end of the Sony Open until he delivered the goods.

His wedge into a breeze to a back pin to 3 feet gave him a birdie on the par-5 18th for a 3-under 67 and allowed him to join a three-way playoff with Keegan Bradley and Byeong Hun An. And then he buried a birdie putt from just inside 40 feet with An facing a 4-foot birdie.

Bradley missed from 18 feet. An’s short putt grazed the lip. Murray had another PGA Tour title, the other coming more than six years ago at an opposite-field event when he was a rookie.

The timing couldn’t be better.

Murray, who earned his way back to the PGA Tour with two wins on the Korn Ferry Tour last year, now can bank on his first trip to the Masters in April and a spot in the seven remaining signature events with their $20 million purses.

“I knew today was not going to change my life,” he said. “But it did change my career.”

As big as the win was for Murray, it was a tough loss for Byeong Hun An and Keegan Bradley.

An hit a 3-iron to just inside 15 feet on the 18th in regulation, the best shot of the day on Waialae’s closing hole, and two-putted for birdie an a 64 to be the first to post 17-under 263. In the playoff, he hit a superb pitch from the thick collar below the green to 4 feet, only to miss .

“Just a poor putt and poor read at the end which could have happened on any holes during 73 holes,” An said. “It’s a shame it ended that way. It hurts, but what are you going to do?”

Bradley broke away from a five-way tie for the lead with a 20-foot birdie on the 15th, but he had to settle for pars the rest of the way. He missed the fairway on the 18th and had to lay up, hitting a pedestrian wedge to 20 feet. The winning putt in regulation narrowly missed.

In the playoff, he was in the best position in the fairway. But he pulled his fairway metal into the grandstand, chipped only to 18 feet and missed after Murray had made birdie.

“I played good enough to win. But sometimes it’s just not quite good enough, and that was one of these weeks,” said Bradley, who called it one of the toughest losses of his career.

Murray, who earned $1,494,000, moves into the top 50 for the first time and has reason to believe the path leads only higher.

He ran into trouble with PGA Tour discipline three years ago in Honolulu. He later took to social media to criticize the tour for not helping him with his drinking. There also was a social media spat with Kevin Na when Murray poked fun at Na’s pace of play.

He was angry and his career was going nowhere. The winner’s lei around his neck was a sweet smell and allowed time to reflect even in the immediacy of winning.

“It’s not easy, you know?” he said. “I wanted to give up a lot of times — give up on myself, give up on the game of golf, give up on life at times. When you get tired of fighting, let someone fight for you.

“My life is so good right now. I wouldn’t trade anything,” he said. “Everyone in my life right now who is close to me who has been through the struggles with me. All of them are part of this. I think this is just the start of something really special.”

Carl Yuan and Russell Henley each closed with a 63 and had their chances.

Henley was at 17 under until he pulled his tee shot left on the 16th, made a strong recovery but ultimately missed a 4-foot par putt. On the closing par 5, his drive went into such a deep lie in the rough he had no chance to get near the green and missed a 10-foot birdie chance.

Yuan made his mistake on the par-3 17th, missing the green left and missing a 4-foot par putt to fall out of the lead. And he appeared to get a break on the 18th when his second shot sailed into the hospitality area.

The ball was never found, but officials interviewed spectators and determined with “virtual certainty” it was in a large part of a compound that included tents and restrooms and other structures. He got a free drop and escaped with par.

J.T. Poston finished alone in sixth with the round of the week. He closed with a 61 and was among seven players who had a share of the lead at one point.

Grayson Murray's winning moment <a href="https://twitter.com/SonyOpenHawaii?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@SonyOpenHawaii</a> is unreal ⚡️ <a href="https://t.co/mXWlIaU3Dr">pic.twitter.com/mXWlIaU3Dr</a> &mdash; @PGATOUR

Murray always looked like the odd-man out in a three-way battle at the end of the Sony Open until he delivered the goods.

His wedge into a breeze to a back pin to three feet gave him a birdie on the par-5 18th for a 3-under 67 and allowed him to join a three-way playoff with Keegan Bradley and Byeong Hun An. And then he buried a birdie putt from just inside 40 feet with An facing a four-foot birdie.

Bradley missed from 18 feet. An's short putt grazed the lip. Murray had another PGA Tour title, the other coming more than six years ago at an opposite-field event when he was a rookie.

The timing couldn't be better.

Murray, who earned his way back to the PGA Tour with two wins on the Korn Ferry Tour last year, now can bank on his first trip to the Masters in April and a spot in the seven remaining signature events with their $20 million US purses.

Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., finished in a tie for seventh at 14 under — three shots back of the winner. Taylor Pendrith of Richmond Hill, Ont., finished at 13 under and tied for 10th.

Ben Silverman of Thornhill, Ont., tied for 18th at 11 under, while Adam Svensson of Surrey, B.C., finished tied for 30th at 9 under. Corey Conners of Listowel, Ont., tied for 57th at 6 under.

As big as the win was for Murray, it was a tough loss for Byeong Hun An and Keegan Bradley.

An hit a 3-iron to just inside 15 feet on the 18th in regulation, the best shot of the day on Waialae's closing hole, and two-putted for birdie an a 64 to be the first to post 17-under 263. In the playoff, he hit a superb pitch from the thick collar below the green to four feet, only to miss.

"Just a poor putt and poor read at the end which could have happened on any holes during 73 holes," An said. "It's a shame it ended that way. It hurts, but what are you going to do?"

Bradley broke away from a five-way tie for the lead with a 20-foot birdie on the 15th, but he had to settle for pars the rest of the way. He missed the fairway on the 18th and had to lay up, hitting a pedestrian wedge to 20 feet. The winning putt in regulation narrowly missed.

In the playoff, he was in the best position in the fairway. But he pulled his fairway metal into the grandstand, chipped only to 18 feet and missed after Murray had made birdie.

Murray, who earned $1,494,000, moves into the top 50 for the first time and has reason to believe the path leads only higher.

He ran into trouble with PGA Tour discipline three years ago in Honolulu. He later took to social media to criticize the tour for not helping him with his drinking. There also was a social media spat with Kevin Na when Murray poked fun at Na's pace of play.

He was angry and his career was going nowhere. The winner's lei around his neck was a sweet smell and allowed time to reflect even in the immediacy of winning.

"It's not easy, you know?" he said. "I wanted to give up a lot of times — give up on myself, give up on the game of golf, give up on life at times. When you get tired of fighting, let someone fight for you.

"My life is so good right now. I wouldn't trade anything," he said. "Everyone in my life right now who is close to me who has been through the struggles with me. All of them are part of this. I think this is just the start of something really special."

Carl Yuan and Russell Henley each closed with a 63 and had their chances.

Yuan made his mistake on the par-3 17th, missing the green left and missing a four-foot par putt to fall out of the lead. And he appeared to get a break on the 18th when his second shot sailed into the hospitality area.

The ball was never found, but officials interviewed spectators and determined with "virtual certainty" it was in a large part of a compound that included tents and restrooms and other structures. He got a free drop and escaped with par.

J.T. Poston finished alone in sixth with the round of the week. He closed with a 61 and was among seven players who had a share of the lead at one point.

PGA Championship

Valhalla Golf Club

Here's the prize money payout for each golfer at the 2021 Sony Open in Hawaii

Kevin Na shot a five-under 65 to claim the title on Sunday at the Sony Open.

Gregory Shamus

Sunday at the Sony Open was supposed to be Brendan Steele’s chance at redemption. Instead, he found himself experiencing déjà vu.

For the second straight year the 37-year-old PGA Tour journeyman held the lead entering the final round at Waialae Country Club in Honolulu. And for the second straight year Steele stumbled on the back nine, letting Kevin Na rip the title out of his grasp like Cameron Smith had done in 2020.

Na started the day two strokes off the lead, but shot a five-under 65 to claim his fifth career PGA Tour title. Four birdies on the final six holes allowed him to pass Steele, who was making two bogeys on the back nine en route to a one-under 69, and pass another player making a late rally in Chris Kirk.

Steele had hoped not only to claim his fourth career tour title but to achieve something that hadn’t been done since 2008 by winning a tournament that he had lost in a playoff the previous year. The last time that happened was in 2008 when Ryuji Imada accomplished that feat at the now defunct AT&T Classic outside Atlanta.

Na’s win earned him a prize money payout of $1.188 million. The overall prize money payout at the Sony Open is $6.6 million. Here’s a breakdown of the payouts for every golfer who made the cut this week. Come back shortly after the end of the tournament on Sunday and we’ll have player names and how much they won.

Keegan Bradley, Grayson Murray lead PGA Tour's Sony Open

• Associated Press

HONOLULU -- The hard work is not over for Grayson Murray , in golf or in life. The final round of the Sony Open might give him a good idea of how far he has come.

Murray got up-and-down from a bunker on the par-5 18th on for birdie and a 6-under to share the lead with Keegan Bradley going into the final round at Waialae in a Sony Open that is hardly a two-man race.

Bradley, a former major champion who has played in two Ryder Cups, is going for his third PGA Tour title in the last 16 months.

Murray's only PGA Tour win was an opposite-field event more than six years ago. He might be best known for a rant against the tour when he was coping with a drinking problem in 2021, accusing of the organization of not providing support. He also had a spat with Kevin Na on social media over Na's pace of play. And then there was the scooter accident in Bermuda in the fall of 2022 that injured him. It's been a lot.

Murray dedicated himself to the Korn Ferry Tour last year, won and was among the top 30 who earned PGA Tour cards. In the first full-field event of the year, he's in the right place.

"My rookie year was 2017. I was young and thought I was invincible. Wasn't doing the correct stuff off the course to really give myself the best chance to succeed out here," Murray said.

He said he has been sober for eight months. The only social media account he keeps is Instagram and he keeps that quiet. And he has a good support system.

"I have a beautiful fiancée that I love so much and who is so supportive of me, and my parents are so supportive of me," Murray said. "Just makes everything so easy when I got out here inside the ropes when everyone is just in my circle just really pulling for me.

"They're right there with me when I do have those hard days -- and I still have hard days, but I feel a lot more at peace inside the ropes now."

He might need that in what figures to be a wide-open final round.

Six players were within three shots of the lead, typical for Waialae. It was so chaotic on a gorgeous afternoon up the shores from Waikiki that 10 players had at least a share of the lead at some point in the third round.

Getting some separation was tough, though Bradley and Murray at least got a little.

Bradley hit a cut 6-iron to a back pin to 6 feet for birdie on the par-3 17th, and then his tee shot on the par-5 closing hole avoided the bunker. He had a good enough lie to get it on the green for a two-putt birdie.

That put him at 14-under 196, and Murray soon joined him. They led by one shot over Sam Stevens , who had a 63.

Among those still in the mix is Chris Kirk (67). He won The Sentry last week and at three shots behind can still entertain hopes of joining Justin Thomas in 2017 and Ernie Els in 2004 to sweep the Hawaii swing.

Murray thinks he has turned the corner, and he took plenty of inspiration from Kirk, who had to step away from golf in 2019 to address alcoholism and depression.

"Chris is an inspiration," Murray said. "I think he's been pretty vocal about his story as well. You can see the success after he got sober, how quickly he had success out here on tour, became the player that he was before and even better."

The group at 11-under 199 includes Taiga Semikawa of Japan, playing on a Sony Open sponsor exemption. He is among 21 players on the Japan Golf Tour with the name Taiga. It doesn't translate to "tiger" but it is pronounced that way, and it's no coincidence.

The majority of those players are 26 or younger, which dates to 1997, when Tiger Woods shattered records and brought new energy to golf.

"Yes, I was named after Tiger Woods and I kind of took on the way he plays," Semikawa said through a interpreter. "I grew up watching his aggressive style, and I think that kind of fits my personality and is something I try to replicate in my own game."

One example was from a fairway bunker on the 14th that Semikawa hit out of to 10 feet. That started a closing stretch of four birdies over his last five holes.

Semikawa never bothered looking at a leaderboard during or after his round. He celebrated his 23rd birthday on Thursday and would appear to be having the time of his life.

For so many others, Sunday will be a time to make birdies and keep going.

"It's a tricky thing because you can't be staring at the leaderboard all day," Bradley said. "If you make a bogey or a few pars in a row, you can go from leading to 12th in a second. I've got to go out tomorrow and probably shoot another pretty low one to win."

Scottie Scheffler—World’s No. 1 Golfer—Detained By Police Before PGA Championship

• Share to Facebook
• Share to Twitter
• Share to Linkedin

Scottie Scheffler, the world's top-ranked golfer, was detained by police while on his way to the PGA Championship Friday morning, following a misunderstanding with officials after a separate traffic incident resulted in a pedestrian’s death.

The event was delayed after a pedestrian was killed in a separate incident.

A police officer attached himself to Scheffler’s car as the golfer tried to drive by him into Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, later requesting Scheffler leave his vehicle before placing him in handcuffs, ESPN reported .

Scheffler was charged with second-degree assault of a police officer, third-degree criminal mischief, reckless driving and disregarding traffic signals, according to jail records.

PGA of America delayed the PGA Championship earlier Friday, after a pedestrian walking outside the gate to the golf club was struck and killed by a bus, according to the Louisville Metro Police Department.

The PGA Championship was delayed again shortly after Scheffler—who was scheduled to tee off at 8:48 a.m.—was arrested, delaying the start of the event until 8:35 a.m. ET.

Scheffler reportedly arrived at the Valhalla Golf Club around 9:10 a.m. and is scheduled to tee off at 10:08 a.m.

Scheffler was booked shortly after 7 a.m.

Forbes Community Guidelines

Our community is about connecting people through open and thoughtful conversations. We want our readers to share their views and exchange ideas and facts in a safe space.

In order to do so, please follow the posting rules in our site's  Terms of Service.   We've summarized some of those key rules below. Simply put, keep it civil.

Your post will be rejected if we notice that it seems to contain:

• False or intentionally out-of-context or misleading information
• Insults, profanity, incoherent, obscene or inflammatory language or threats of any kind
• Attacks on the identity of other commenters or the article's author
• Content that otherwise violates our site's  terms.

User accounts will be blocked if we notice or believe that users are engaged in:

• Continuous attempts to re-post comments that have been previously moderated/rejected
• Racist, sexist, homophobic or other discriminatory comments
• Attempts or tactics that put the site security at risk
• Actions that otherwise violate our site's  terms.

So, how can you be a power user?

• Stay on topic and share your insights
• Feel free to be clear and thoughtful to get your point across
• ‘Like’ or ‘Dislike’ to show your point of view.
• Protect your community.
• Use the report tool to alert us when someone breaks the rules.
