The 2022 CJ Cup in South Carolina continues on Saturday with the third round at Congaree Golf Club. You can find full Round 3 tee times for the tournament at the bottom of this post.
Featured grouping for CJ Cup Round 3
Kurt Kitayama and Jon Rahm are tied for the lead at 11 under par through 36 holes.
Cam Davis and Aaron Wise are one shot behind them, at 10 under.
But the grouping we’re most excited to watch on Saturday isn’t the final trio. No, it’s Rory McIlroy and Lee Hodges and Aaron Wise, for obvious reasons.
A win this week virtually guarantees McIlroy the No. 1 spot in the world ranking, and so far, he’s rising to the occasion. McIlroy fired a second-round 67 on Friday to follow up his first-round 66 on Thursday. He’s nine under par overall and only two shots behind Rahm and Kitayama’s lead. (Hodges is four shots off the lead at seven under.)
McIlroy, Hodges and Wise will tee off in the penultimate grouping at 12:58 p.m. ET on Saturday. Check out the complete third-round tee times for the 2022 CJ Cup below.
