Jim Furyk is looking to find major championship glory for the first time in 10 years. After three rounds of play in the 2013 PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y., Furyk has a one-shot lead over Jason Dufner heading into the final round.

He hasn't won a major since 2003 when he took home the U.S. Open title.

This year's PGA Championship hasn't been a showcase of golf's biggest names, but we have been treated to pulse-pounding action this week at Oak Hill.

Here's a real-time look at the leaderboard with a link option to see the full list of scores.



A more comprehensive look at the top 10 is included below.



 

Top Contenders

Jim Furyk



The major championships haven't been good to Furyk over the past few seasons, but through three rounds, he's in position to grab the year's final major. At 43 years old, the clock is ticking, and another chance at a victory like this might never materialize.

Furyk overcame three bogeys and benefited from some early struggles from Dufner. He only has a slim lead, but his steady play gives him a great chance to win.

 

Jason Dufner



After Friday's seven-under 63, you had to expect Dufner to come back to Earth on Saturday. To his credit, he didn't allow some early troubles snowball into a train wreck.

After a double bogey on the fifth hole, Dufner was one under par the rest of the way.

Not everyone is enthused about a final group that features the rather emotionless pairing of Furyk and Dufner. Kyle Porter of CBS Sports jokes:



The only downfall of having a round like Dufner had on Friday is that if you don't blow the field away, you may be spent. Energy and focus will be Dufner's biggest impediments on Sunday.
