Pairings to watch out for in the final round

Xander Schauffle and Patrick Cantlay, off-course buddies, have been paired together for the final round. Cantlay held onto his lead but Schauffele came within range after a stellar moving day performance. Cantlay has a two-shot overnight cushion heading into the final round. 

They have been paired many times before on the final day, most famously at the 2020 Zozo Championship, where Cantlay got better of Schauffele, and in the 2022 Travelers Championship, where Schauffele went on to snatch his sixth career win.

On the other hand, last year’s runner-up, Max Homa, will tee up alongside Scottie Scheffler at 12.05 PM EST. Homa slipped to the 20th spot, carding 1-under 70 in a round filled with four bogeys, three birdies, and an eagle. Scheffler continued his downslide in putting making three bogeys to also post 1-under 70.
