Leans On The Last Four Groups
- 1:15 Spieth/Harman: Harman. Level at 6 under; Harman's miss survives Southwind's water.
- 1:25 Echavarria/Fleetwood: Fleetwood. Also 6 under; I'll take the defending FedExCup champion.
- 1:35 Hovland/Åberg: Åberg. One back at 7 under; I'd take his irons on this second-shot course.
- 1:45 Scheffler/Im: Scheffler. Three clear; he needs par golf, not another 61.
Third of 34 groups puts Rory McIlroy near the bottom of a 68-man field.
