While the biggest names in the game are across the pond battling at the Genesis Scottish Open — Rory McIlroy leads at 13 under — there’s another PGA Tour tournament happening at Keene Trace Golf Club in Nicholasville, Kentucky.

After 54 holes of the Barbasol Championship, this week’s opposite-field event, Trevor Cone leads at 17 under thanks to a third-round 9-under 63. Cone, the 450th-ranked golfer in the Official World Golf Ranking, has made 20 starts this season, missing 11 cuts. His best finish came at the AT&T Byron Nelson, where he tied for 23rd.

One stroke behind Cone are Lucas Glover (3-under 69) and Vincent Norrman (5-under 67). While Norrman is looking for his first win on Tour, Glover hasn’t hoisted hardware since the 2021 John Deere Classic. The 2009 U.S. Open champ tied for fourth at the Rocket Mortgage Classic and for sixth at the John Deere in his last two starts.

Adrien Saddier is alone in fourth at 15 under while Nathan Kimsey and Jayden Schaper are T-5, 14 under.
