Jason Day holds a two-shot lead going into the final day of the US PGA Championship at Whistling Straits.

The Australian continued his fine display at the tournament as he recorded a round of 66 to leave him 15-under-par for the tournament.

Day's card on day three included an eagle at the 11th and eight birdies, but also a double-bogey on the 15th and bogeys on the second and fourth to hold up his charge for the crown.

American Jordan Spieth is within striking distance after his round of 65 on the third day as he recorded seven birdies, including three on the last three holes of the course, in an error-free round to move to 13-under-par.

South African Branden Grace had the best display of the day by carding a round of 64 with eight birdies, including one on the 18th, to leave him three shots off the lead.

Justin Rose finds himself in the mix for the title on 12-under-par for the tournament following his round of 68, although he was made to rue a double-bogey on the fourth and a bogey on the 18th.

Meanwhile, Rory McIlroy is placed in tied-17th on six-under after he carded a round of 68, which leaves him nine shots off the lead.
