Viktor Hovland pulled within one shot of leader Scottie Scheffler after a dramatic late swing on Saturday at the Travelers Championship.
Hovland made a 6-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole at TPC River Highlands, while Scheffler bogeyed the same hole, creating a tight margin heading into the final round.
Final Pairing Set for Sunday
The two will play together in the final group on Sunday, with Akshay Bhatia and Patrick Cantlay tied for third at 15 under par.
Favorable weather and calm winds are expected to produce low scores, with the winner potentially surpassing Keegan Bradley's 2023 tournament record of 23 under par.
Wyndham Clark, who shot a third-round 65, admitted fatigue after his recent U. S.
Open victory. "I'm running on fumes.
I'm looking forward to next week. I'm not going to touch a club," Clark said.
Clark remains in contention but has seen a decline in his short-game metrics.
Sam Burns is tied for 10th and aims to improve his putting in the final round.
