Bhatia struggled Saturday with an eight-over 80 at the Memorial Tournament to knock him out of contention.
ANALYSIS
Bhatia entered the third round at Muirfield Village Golf Club inside the top-10, but after recording four bogeys, two double-bogeys, and zero birdies on a tough windy day in Dublin, Ohio, Bhatia fell out of contention. Bhatia hit only six greens in regulation on Saturday, and was only able to save par on six of the 12 missed greens. This poor performance into and around the greens made Bhatia lose over five shots on the field as he ranked 55th in SG: Approach and 50th in SG: Around the Green out of 57 in the third round. While Bhatia was able to rebound in the final round, shooting a two-under 70 to finish tied 16th, his poor third round ended his chances to contend in what was an overall good week. He will look to rebound next at Oakmont in the U.S Open.
