Patrick Cantlay and Tommy Fleetwood are tied for the lead at 16-under-par after Saturday’s third round of the 2025 Tour Championship at East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta.
Fleetwood is seeking his first career PGA Tour win and hoping to finally get over the hump this weekend after squandering two opportunities in recent months. He blew a two-stroke lead with four holes to go at the Travelers Championship in June and another two-stroke advantage with three to go at the FedEx St. Jude in Memphis just two weeks ago.
Lurking on the leaderboard are Russell Henley (-14), Keegan Bradley (-13) and reigning FedEx Cup winner Scottie Scheffler (-12). Cantlay is seeking his second FedEx Cup win, having won the playoff in 2021.

Tour Championship Round 3 highlights
Tommy Fleetwood loses lead early in 3rd round
Fleetwood was tied for the lead coming into the round and is now tied with two other golfers, Patrick Canlay and co-36-hole leader Russell Henley. Keegan Bradley is 4-under for the round and is two shots off the lead.
Final group tees off
All 30 golfers have hit the course, and Tommy Fleetwood and Russell Henley, who have the 36-hole lead, are the ones to catch. Scottie Scheffler began his day five shots back of the lead and bogeyed the first hole, which has given golfers trouble all day. There have been only 10 birdies on that hole during the entire tournament.
Moving day starts
The first two golfers have started their third round, with Viktor Hovland and J.J. Spaun teeing off. Each of the 30 golfers vying for the FedEx Cup is under par as moving day starts. All are trying to catch Tommy Fleetwood and Russell Brand, who are 13-under entering the day.
