US PGA Championship: Day three digest

Smalley had reason to smile, Reitan was leaving it late and drives and putts were covering some serious yardage.

Here is all you need to know.

Reitan stars after late putter change

"It was a little bit of a spontaneous decision," said Kristoffer Reitan. He was talking of his decision to change his putter for round three, a decision he made just ten minutes before his tee time. "It just has a little bit of a different feel to it, a little bit softer on the face which is nice, I can be a little bit more aggressive on the quick greens," he added. The in-from Norwegian has had the putter for two-and-a-half years but swapped it out last week at the Truist Championship and went on to win his first PGA TOUR title at Quail Hollow. Despite that success, Reitan decided to switch back for Moving Day and proceeded to card two eagles and three birdies to move to two under and will now be aiming for a first Major Championship win less than two years after winning his first professional title and after nearly eight years in the paid ranks.

It's not just the putter.....

The tee at the par four 13th was brought up 91 yards to make it driveable and Reitan duly obliged, hitting the pin with his tee shot and making an eagle two.

How far?

Unlike the 13th, the 397-yard sixth was not meant to driveable. Rory McIlroy did not get the memo.

Seriously, how far?

Not the driver this time but the putter. Just the 78 feet for Haotong Li.
