After pounding his drive 325 yards down the middle of the 18th fairway, Justin Thomas had only 102 yards left for his second shot. He had already made four birdies over his five last holes, although a bogey at the famous par-3 16th soured that stretch somewhat.

The third round of the 2025 WM Phoenix Open is underway at TPC Scottsdale. That means the return of the wildest crowds in golf, which are known for creating mayhem on Saturdays at the event dubbed "The People's Open." On the course, Belgium's Thomas Detry enters the weekend with the lead at 12-under par.
