Sunday scenarios at the US Open: What could happen in the final round?

Who will win the US Open? Which records could be broken on the final day in Brookline? We look at six potential scenarios going into what is set to be a special major Sunday... A breakthrough victory for Zalatoris?

Will Zalatoris is still searching for a long-awaited maiden PGA Tour title, although a brilliant third-round 67 has bolstered his chances of making that first victory in a major.

Zalatoris finished runner-up at The Masters last year and has already lost out in two play-offs in 2022, missing out to Luke List at the Farmers Insurance Open and being beaten by Justin Thomas in extra holes at last month's PGA Championship.

Arnold Palmer was the last player to follow a major play-off loss with a win in the next major some 60 years ago, but can Zalatoris change that at The Country Club?

Only three Englishmen over the past 100 years have won the US Open; Cyril Walker, Tony Jacklin and Justin Rose, with Matt Fitzpatrick in prime position to join that elite group at the venue where he won the US Amateur in 2013.

Danny Willett was the last player to make their maiden PGA Tour title a major, winning The Masters in 2016, with Graeme McDowell, Louis Oosthuizen, Martin Kaymer and Charl Schwartzel among the other players to do so.

Fitzpatrick heads into the final day on four under alongside Zalatoris, having finished a two-under 68 with a final-hole bogey, with the 27-year-old primed to build on a strong first half of the year and challenge for an elusive victory on American soil.
