Overview
- Griffin shot a 2-under 70 with his first bogey of the week at the par-5 18th to reach 16-under 200 and he will play the final group with Koivun.
- Koivun closed with a back-nine 32 for a 68 highlighted by an eagle at No. 12; the world No. 1 amateur is one back, has a PGA Tour U card secured, and a win would allow immediate membership if he turns pro.
- Scheffler vaulted into solo third at 14 under with an 8-under 64 that included 10 birdies and a double bogey at the 14th on his first competitive week at Silverado.
- Garrick Higgo sits fourth at 13 under, while JJ Spaun and Russell Henley fell to 9 under after rounds of 72 and 74, respectively.
- Fans packed Silverado to follow the Ryder Cup-heavy field as Team USA players seek form ahead of Bethpage Black from Sept. 26–28.
