Overview

  • Shane Lowry and Sepp Straka head into the final round tied at 14-under, seeking their first wins at a PGA Tour signature event.
  • Keith Mitchell, the leader after the first two rounds, and Justin Thomas trail by three strokes at 11-under, while Hideki Matsuyama follows at 10-under after a 63, the best score of round three.
  • Rory McIlroy, the defending champion, sits six shots back at 8-under, struggling with accuracy off the tee during the third round.
  • Weather conditions have significantly influenced play, with rain-softened greens earlier in the week giving way to blustery winds and faster surfaces during the third round.
  • Notable withdrawals include Justin Rose, citing illness before the third round, and Sahith Theegala, who exited before the final round due to a neck injury.
