The BMW PGA Championship is one of the premier events on the DP World Tour, and several premier players are in the hunt at the Wentworth Club in England, despite a battle with heavy rain.

Rory McIlroy, who won the BMW PGA in 2014, was tied for the lead 11 holes into his third round. Billy Horschel, the event’s 2021 champion, made four birdies in a row around the turn Saturday and was one back of the lead with seven holes to play.

As the race for the title continues, the players at Wentworth will battle soggy conditions for the remainder of the third round.

Here are a dozen photos from a rain-soaked Saturday at the BMW PGA Championship.
