Memorial Tournament 2012: Muirfield Village Provides Challenging Sunday Test

With the leaders yet to start their Sunday final round at the Memorial, it appears that for the second straight day Muirfield Village will not be yielding much movement. Spencer Levin, Rickie Fowler and Vijay Singh fired the low rounds on Saturday with a 3-under 69. That’s relatively high, but Muirfield consistently provides one of the stiffest tests in golf. There are only 18 players on the course under par today, with Nick O’Hern at 4-under through 13 holes.

Former U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover has moved into the red, carding two birdies in his first five holes. Stewart Cink also drained back-to-back birdies on No. 2 and No. 3 to move to 1-under for the tournament. But he’s still seven shots back of the leader Spencer Levin, and with Muirfield not providing the kind of birdie opportunities needed for a dramatic charge, the 2012 Memorial will almost certainly come down to the final two groups. Fowler and Tiger Woods go off at 1:20 p.m. ET while Rory Sabbatini and Levin tee off at 1:30 p.m. ET.
