Jason Day maintained his stranglehold on the lead Saturday at the BMW Championship by virtue of a two-under 69, which puts him at 20 under par for the tournament.

The awe-inspiring Aussie looked somewhat ordinary during the third round at Conway Farms Golf Club in Lake Forest, Illinois, when compared to his opening two rounds, but he still boasts a comfortable six-shot lead over Scott Piercy and Daniel Berger:




Day enjoyed the best start of his career in a professional tournament Thursday and Friday by registering rounds of 61 and 63, respectively. Expectations were high entering the weekend, and even though his third round paled in comparison, it didn't need to be out of this world since he had already built a nice advantage.

As pointed out by the PGA Tour's official Twitter account, the reigning PGA Championship winner is dominating the tournament in essentially all areas:



He is on such a spectacular run that legendary golfer and broadcaster Johnny Miller doesn't believe anyone can touch him right now, according to Mike McAllister of PGATour.com:



After parring the first two holes of the round, Day increased his lead on the par-four third by knocking down this fairly lengthy birdie putt:



The rest of his front nine was pretty erratic as bogeys on the sixth and ninth canceled out birdies on the seventh and eighth.

The 27-year-old star began to round back into form on the back nine, though, as he birdied the 12th on the heels of this nearly perfect approach shot:



That marked the start of an up-and-down stretch as he traded birdies and bogeys from the 12th through the 15th holes.

Things settled down after that with pars on the 16th and 17th before Day birdied the par-five 18th to increase his lead to six strokes entering the final round of the tournament.

Saturday wasn't all...
