FedEx Open de France - Day three digest

Antoine Rozner finished in style, Adrien Saddier's son impressed with the putter and Simon Forsström hit an ace on Moving Day at the 2025 FedEx Open de France.

Here is everything you need to know from Saturday's play at Golf de Saint-Nom-La-Bretèche.

Charging Brooks joins Lee at summit

Brooks Koepka and Min Woo Lee shared the lead on 11 under par after their respective third rounds of 65 and 68. Koepka, who had five successive birdies on the most difficult stretch of the course from the 13th, said: "I feel like my game has been trending in the right direction. I've felt very uncomfortable over the putts pretty much all year (but) we've got it sorted now where I feel like I'm striking the putts very well and feeling confident and that's honestly half the battle." Lee added: "Again, just pretty solid. Didn't do anything spectacular. You've got to hit it on the fairway. A few putts there I just missed so just got to capitalise tomorrow."

Ko No!

Jeong weon Ko called 'no!' as soon as he hit his tee-shot at the seventh - but it was unclear why, as his ball spun nicely inside six feet to set up a birdie.

Forsström aces the seventh

At two under par, Simon Forsström is out of range of the leaders but the Swede will leave Paris with a memory to savour after making a hole in one at the seventh, his pitching wedge off the tee finding the bottom of the cup from 138 yards. Well played Simon!

Rozner's big finish

Antoine Rozner moved to the fringe of title contention as a 66 lifted him to seven under par, four shots off the lead. He reached that mark in style, holing from a greenside bunker to birdie the 18th.

Trio Beat the Pro

The ever-popular Beat the Pro contest returned to the FedEx Open de France for the second successive year and we had three winners on Saturday. Ilya Martin, Paolo Furlani and Lucie Zhao, playing off respective handicaps of 11, two and 14, all put their orange ball closer than any of the professionals' white ones in the groups they were paired with. The trio won VIP packages to next year's event but eight-handicapper Zach Cowell took a more direct approach - his attempt clanged off the roof of the Terrasse FedEx hospitality enclosure.

Watch out for Saddier Jr

Adrien Saddier spoke after Friday's round of his happiness at enjoying some family time around his home Open. The television cameras caught him on the green with his young son after Saturday's play - and the youngster's putter was running hot!
