Power fades as Scheffler and Clark close in on leader Kim
Scottie Scheffler and Wyndham Clark shot 65s to trim Si-Woo Kim’s lead to 2 strokes heading into the final round.
Si-Woo Kim leads the CJ Cup Byron Nelson by two strokes entering Sunday's final round after shooting 3-under 68 on Saturday at TPC Craig Ranch.
Scottie Scheffler and 2023 U.S. Open champion Wyndham Clark narrowed Kim's five-shot lead to two after both major winners carded matching 65s during Saturday's third round.
Tied for second at 19 under, Scheffler and Clark remain within striking distance while Stephan Jaeger, Sung-Jae Im, and Tom Hoge are two shots further back at 17 under.
"It's fun being in contention," Clark said, expecting he will need to make a "ton of birdies" during Sunday's final round to secure victory.
Kim aims to regain his "mojo" after his lead slipped Saturday, while hometown favorite Scheffler pursues his 21st PGA Tour victory in Dallas on Sunday.
