Australian golfer Cameron Smith plays his way toward the lead late in the PGA Championship after a difficult week that includes parting ways with his long-time coach, Grant Field. According to ABC’s coverage, Smith rebounds from earlier struggles and makes a significant run through the tournament, highlighted by strong performances in the closing stages. In the third round, he posts a move that signals improvement as he targets an end to his major championship drought. The reporting then describes Smith maintaining that momentum into the final round, beginning strongly and closing the gap to the leaders. One account places him within one stroke of the PGA Championship lead after an early burst in the last round, underscoring how quickly he is moving up the leaderboard. Across the outlets, the focus remains on Smith’s late-tournament surge at the PGA Championship and the timing of the coaching change, with both developments framed as part of the same week. The sources do not indicate the final result, but they agree that Smith positions himself as a serious contender heading into the remainder of the final round.
