“It’s going to be a cool environment and a unique experience frankly to have a chance to win a golf tournament with a partner, something that I have not had a chance to do,” said Hossler. “I know Wyndham has here in the past. So it will be a nice little Sunday for us.”
“I just think it lightens the mood,” said Clark. “Sometimes when you’re alone, it feels like you’re out on an island. When the momentum gets going bad, when you’re on your own, sometimes it’s tough to turn that.
“With a teammate, you can kind of feed off each other and really not allow that momentum to get going in the wrong direction. So I hope tomorrow we’re light and loose like we’ve been all three days. If the momentum goes in our direction, I hope we just keep riding it. I think it will be great.”

South Korea’s Sungjae Im and Keith Mitchell also posted a 62, their first bogey-free round this week, and lie in solo second place at 25-under.
Sweden’s Vincent Norman and Austria’s Matthias Schwab also shot a 62 to move into a share of third place at 23-under alongside Matthew NeSmith/Taylor Moore(63) and Nick Hardy/Davis Riley (63).
The Fitzpatrick brothers posted a 62 and lie in T7 at 21-under.
“I’ve had some decent results so far this year, and that kind of gave me some confidence coming into this,” said Alex Fitzpatrick. “There are stakes, but at the same time, we’ve got nothing to lose. We’re coming out and enjoying ourselves. If we play well, great. If we don’t, it’s not the end of the world. I get to spend time with my brother, spend time with my family and stuff. Yeah, it’s been a great week.”
Xander Schauffele and Patrick Cantlay who set the tournament 18-hole Foursomes scoring record in round two posted a 66 in Four-Ball and enter the final round six shots back at T10.
