Scheffler leads £19m PGA Tour finale by five shots

World number one Scottie Scheffler will take a five-shot lead into the final round of the season-ending Tour Championship.

After a slow start, the American finished his third round strongly with birdies on four of the final five holes.

They helped Scheffler to card a 66 for a 26-under-par total and sit five strokes ahead of compatriot Collin Morikawa.

Morikawa had reduced the deficit to two shots on the front nine but Scheffler recovered with back-to-back birdies on the seventh and eighth.

The biggest mover was Sahith Theegala, who finished with five consecutive birdies to move into third place ahead of Xander Schauffele on 17 under.
