ATLANTA – And then there was one.
One round, 18 holes on Sunday will determine who wins the Tour Championship, the season-long FedEx Cup and a first-place prize of $25 million in bonus money.
Scottie Scheffler is in the pole position, just as he has been almost the entire season. The Texan is trying to win his seventh PGA Tour title this year and the FedEx Cup for the first time. It would cap off one of the most remarkable seasons on the PGA Tour since Tiger Woods in his prime. Scheffler posted 5-under 66 at East Lake Golf Club on Saturday to improve to 26 under and extend his lead to five shots over Collin Morikawa.
But it was just two years ago that Scheffler owned a six-stroke lead heading into the final round and Rory McIlroy shot 64 to erase the deficit and claim the title. As Yogi Berra would say, it ain’t over ‘til it’s over.
Here are five things to know about the third round of the Tour Championship.
