Moving Day certainly lived up to its name as an electrifying round three brought significant changes atop the leaderboard.
The two Camerons, Smith and Young, were not at their best on their way to scores of 73 and 71, which left both men at 12-under-par heading into the final round.
Instead, it was the penultimate pairing on Saturday who secured their places in the final group on Sunday, as McIlroy and Hovland both went round in 66 to separate themselves from the field at 16-under.
A raucous atmosphere accompanied the charge of the two Europeans, with McIlroy receiving predictably strong support from fans desperate to see the Northern Irishman reclaim the Claret Jug.
