Scottie Scheffler Moves Within Two at Cj Cup Byron Nelson 2026
Scottie Scheffler heads into the final round of cj cup byron nelson 2026 two shots behind Si Woo Kim at TPC Craig Ranch. Kim leads at 21 under par after three rounds, and Scheffler will start Sunday in the final pairing with a direct path to the top of the board.
Si Woo Kim Holds 21-Under Edge
Kim built the lead with rounds of 64 and 60, then backed into Sunday with a third-round 68 on Saturday. That left him at 21 under par, still on top but with the margin trimmed enough to bring the final round into focus. Scheffler and Wyndham Clark matched 65s on Saturday and reached 19 under par.
Seven players are within five shots of the lead, which gives the final round a crowded board rather than a one-man chase. Scheffler’s move to 19 under matters because it keeps him inside the range where one hot round can flip the tournament before the leaders are even through the early holes.
Scheffler, Clark, and the chase pack
Clark is also at 19 under, while Stephan Jaeger, Tom Hoge, Sungjae Im, and Zach Bauchou are among the players close enough to pressure the leaders. The Saturday scores kept the top of the leaderboard tight after Kim’s earlier five-shot cushion, and the margin now sits in a range that invites movement early Sunday morning.
Scheffler and Kim will play together at 1:40 p.m. ET in the final pairing, so the most important chase will be on the same tee sheet. That setup gives the leaderboard’s top two a direct comparison through the round, with every birdie or missed chance carrying immediate weight.
