Xander Schauffele holds a one-shot lead over Wyndham Clark going into the final day of The Players, with Matt Fitzpatrick and Scottie Scheffler among the chasing pack.
Xander Schauffele came through a third-round tussle with Wyndham Clark to take a one-shot lead into the final day of The Players, with Matt Fitzpatrick and Scottie Scheffler among the chasing pack. Schauffele overturned a four-stroke deficit during a thrilling battle with his Ryder Cup teammate, carding seven birdies in a bogey-free 65 to move to 17 under and one ahead of the reigning US Open champion.
Schauffele birdied the ninth to get within one of Clark at the turn, while Harman converted back-to-back birdies from the 13th to go seven under for his round and join the Olympic gold medallist just one off the lead. Clark joined Schauffele in birdieing the par-five 11th but scrambled a par at the driveable par-four next after finding water off the tee, allowing Schauffele to level when he made a 10-footer, as Harman picked up a shot at the par-five 16th to move within one.
