From his skating dreams to his struggle with diabetes to now leading through three days at TPC Sawgrass, here's a look at Spaun's journey.

J.J. Spaun survived a wild, windy and round-wrecking Saturday at The Players Championship. His 25-foot par putt swirled all the way around the cup on the 18th hole for a 70 and a one-shot lead over Bud Cauley.

Spaun will have to break an ominous run of players who held a solo, one-shot lead through 54 holes at this championship.
