Rain stopped play at Muirfield Village Golf Club on Saturday. The third round of the 2026 Memorial Tournament was suspended in the afternoon due to inclement weather, setting up a Sunday that will require players to finish that round before beginning the fourth.
Third round play is scheduled to resume at 7:30 a.m. Eastern on Sunday. Fourth round tee times are expected to begin between noon and 1 p.m., with tournament officials hoping to complete the event by sunset, according to CBS Sports.
Scottie Scheffler enters the final stretch as the two-time defending champion. A third consecutive Memorial title would match Tiger Woods, who won the event from 1999 to 2001. That streak remains the only three-peat in the tournament's history.
This is the 50th edition of the Memorial. Jack Nicklaus has hosted the event at his Dublin, Ohio, course since 1976. Muirfield Village is considered one of the toughest regular stops on the PGA Tour schedule.
Scheffler is still looking for his second win of the 2026 season. CBS Sports noted that this is the latest in a season he has gone without two wins since 2021, when he had zero wins total rather than the more than 20 he has accumulated since.
Rory McIlroy has never won the Memorial. He has one top-10 finish in his last six starts at the event. McIlroy is among several players still looking for their first Memorial title, alongside Cameron Young, Xander Schauffele, Ludvig Åberg, and Russell Henley, who won on the PGA Tour the previous week.
Other past champions in the field include Patrick Cantlay, who has won the event twice, along with Hideki Matsuyama, Viktor Hovland, and Justin Rose.
Television coverage of Sunday's final round begins on Golf Channel at 12:30 p.m. Eastern, with CBS and Paramount+ picking up the broadcast at 2:30 p.m. and carrying it through 6 p.m.
