'She knew that taking off her engagement ring would send a clear message. 'It's been a hard year so far. They wanted to wait until the tour is over before they made their split official, although Katy has grown tired of the situation.' The couple started dating in 2016 and got engaged three years later. However, The Sun understands they had difficult conversations about their future over Christmas and in January but struggled to make a firm decision. 7 Justin was also spotted at Katy Perry's Montreal concert dancing and singing this week Credit: @ridmi/TMX 7 Yet pals of the popstar have expressed concern over her new connection Credit: Instagram/katyperry 7 Katy and Orlando, who share a daughter, split this year Credit: Getty

Cameron Young holds five-shot lead at Wyndham Championship, Seamus Power rallies late on
Cameron Young shot 5-under-par 65 and threatened to run away from the pack during the Wyndham Championship's third round Saturday at Greensboro, North Carolina. Young, seeking his first victory on the PGA Tour, is at 20-under 190 for a five-stroke advantage on Colombia's Nico Echavarria. Young has been a runner-up seven times since joining the tour in 2022. Echavarria, who shot 64, had birdies on four of the final seven holes to rise into contention. Chris Kirk (67), Mac Meissner (70) and defending champion Aaron Rai (69) of England are tied for third at 12 under. Seamus Power recovered from a disappointing start to sign for a round of 69 that leaves him on -5 for the tournament. The Irishman, starting on the 10th hole, made the turn at +2 after a painful double bogey on the 18th. He slipped further back with a bogey on the par-4 second hole but rallied to claim four biridies in his final six holes. Young, who was at 15 under through the first two rounds with the 125 matching the tournament's 36-hole scoring record, was tearing through Sedgefield Country Club. Through six holes of the third round, Young's margin rose to eight strokes on a quintet that was trying to keep him in their sights. Young had birdies on Nos. 3-6. Until the 15th hole Saturday, Young's lone bogey in the tournament came on No. 1 (his 10th hole) of the first round Thursday. He later added two birdies. Young, 28, played collegiately at nearby Wake Forest. Rai lost momentum he had in the second round when he came back to complete that Saturday morning. Then in the third round, he was 2 over through 12 holes before three consecutive birdies put him back in the mix. Amateur Jackson Koivun, a college golfer for Auburn, shot 65 and is alone in sixth place at 11 under. South Korea's Sungae Im, after a pair of 64s and playing in the final group in the third round, dipped with a 73 and is at 9 under. It was a long day at the course. Some golfers had as many as eight holes to complete in the second round, which was suspended Friday afternoon because of storms. Tom Kim withdrew rather than completing the second round. The third round used threesomes, starting on the first and 10th tees. The Wyndham Championship marks the last tournament on the PGA Tour's regular season, so there will be crucial developments throughout Sunday's round as golfers aim to secure spots in the top 70 in the FedEx Cup standings in order to qualify for the postseason.
