The Rocket Classic in Detroit has continued on to the weekend, with players vying for their spots on the leaderboard. After the cut was made on Friday, Detroit Golf Club welcomed golfers in for the third round on Saturday, otherwise known as ‘moving day’ on the PGA Tour.
Of the three former Spartans competing in Detroit’s PGA Tour event, only one made the weekend, with James Piot making the cut on the six-under number.
On Saturday, Piot was looking to make a move up the leaderboard, but he unfortunately was unable to do so. A two birdie, two bogey day led to a 36-36-72 round for the former Spartan, shooting an even par round. He now sits at T73 on the leaderboard for the tournament.
Sunday’s fourth and final round will be Piot’s last chance to make a move upwards on the leaderboard. He will tee off at 7:34 a.m. in a grouping alongside Ben Kohles.
