The U.S. Open's third round is seeing some impressive shots amid up-and-down play at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass. The top of the leaderboard has been fluid Saturday, with multiple players taking turns holding the top spot.
One of those players is Scottie Scheffler, who sank an iron shot from the fairway on the par-5 eighth hole to take the outright lead. It was Scheffler's second eagle in as many days and it put him at 6 under for the tournament.

Moments later, Collin Morikawa birdied after bogeying the previous hole, putting himself back to 5 under and just behind Scheffler.
