After making the turn at 3-under on the round, Watson bogeyed three of his final six holes to drop back to even par for the day. Watson bogeyed No. 13, No. 15 and No. 17 on Saturday after playing those three holes at 5-under during the first two rounds.
While Watson struggled, DeLaet and Hoffman took advantage with strong rounds. DeLaet shot a 5-under 65 on Saturday while Hoffman jumped seven spots up the leaderboard with a 4-under 66. With Watson falling back from 13-under, 10 players are now within three strokes of the lead. Justin Rose and Hunter Mahan are among the notable names in contention as both will begin the final round three strokes behind at 7-under.
