Li moved into the lead early Friday at the PGA Championship with a bogey-free 65 that left him two strokes clear of the field. He held the lead throughout Saturday.
“I've got no expectation actually, because you know, last few months, stay at home doing nothing. I just want to go out here [and] have fun,” said Li, who has just a single bogey through 36 holes.
The 25-year-old is often described as inconsinstent but capable of just about anything. Li is a two-time winner on the European Tour, most recently in 2018 at the Dubai Desert Classic when he rallied down the stretch to beat Rory McIlroy by one shot.
“He’s got the arsenal to take it low,” said Adam Scott, his teammate at Royal Melbourne. “But we don’t see that kind of consistency out of him, and that probably matches his personality a little bit. He’s young, though, and that’s the kind of golf he plays. He plays pretty much all guns blazing, and when it comes off, it’s really good.”
For the sportsbooks, it's Brooks Koepka who is the biggest liability. He remained among the top five on the leaderboard late Saturday.
