NEW YORK - Matthew Wolff, a 21-year-old American making only his second Major start, fired a five-under par 65 to seize a two-stroke lead after Saturday's third round of the US Open.

"Every time I was in the rough and had a good lie, I took advantage of it," Wolff said."I minimised the mistakes. It was a good day all around. "I felt like I was trying to hope it into the fairway all day. That's not what you want at a US Open," said DeChambeau."I was able to show resilience, coming back to shoot par after two bogeys.""Any under-par round at a US Open you'll take," Oosthuizen said." definitely died down for us. Definitely lucky on the draw today."

Wolff made a 14-foot birdie putt at the opening hole, a 15-footer to birdie the par-4 fourth, a five-footer for birdie at six and a 13-foot birdie putt at the par-3 seventh.
