Sungjae Im leads 2026 Truist Championship entering Saturday round

Sungjae Im holds a one-shot lead at the halfway point of the 2026 Truist Championship. The third round begins Saturday at Quail Hollow in Charlotte, N.C.

Im sits at 9-under after a second-round 69. He returned to competition in March following a five-month absence due to a wrist injury. Im credited his driving accuracy and prior Presidents Cup experience for his position through two rounds. “I’m keeping it in the fairways, as you see there on the data. So it makes it easier for me to hit my second shots on the green in difficult pin positions,” Im said. “Because of the play with the Presidents Cup, I know where to miss the greens, I’m very familiar with this golf course.”
