Lucas Glover Leads ISCO Championship by One Shot Into Final Round

A cooler putter reduced Glover’s advantage at Hurstbourne, while Aaron Wise’s closing birdies set up a tight Sunday contest in Louisville.

Lucas Glover shot a 2-under 68 on Saturday to reach 15-under 195 and take a one-stroke lead over Aaron Wise into the ISCO Championship final round at Hurstbourne Country Club.

Glover has topped the leaderboard after each of the opening three rounds in Louisville. After beginning with bogey-free scores of 63 and 64, he made an eagle plus two birdies on Saturday, offset by two bogeys.

His first bogey of the week came at his 42nd hole, the par-3 sixth. Glover responded immediately at the par-5 7th, hitting a 7-wood to about seven feet before converting the eagle putt and restoring his advantage.

The 46-year-old remained in control from tee to green, hitting 15 of 18 greens in regulation. He leads the field in Strokes Gained: Tee to Green at 11.160, but required 33 putts on Saturday after taking 54 across his first 36 holes.

“Kind of a slow start, 1-over through six,” Glover said. “Just didn’t make anything today. I didn’t feel like I hit that many bad putts, I just didn’t make anything.”

Wise closed with birdies at the final two holes, completing a 4-under 66 to move to 14-under. He has posted rounds of 65-65-66 after arriving at the tournament with six missed cuts followed by a tie for 39th at last week’s John Deere Classic.

“I felt pretty solid every part of my game,” Wise said. “I liked what I did with my ball-striking between yesterday’s round and today, felt pretty comfortable out there with it.”

Stephan Jaeger shot 65 to reach 13-under, where he was joined by Steven Fisk and Chan Kim. Fisk went 51 holes without a bogey after dropping a shot on his opening hole, before another bogey at the 17th on Saturday ended the longest such run in the field.

Zac Blair matched the day’s low round with a 64 and shares sixth with Tom Hoge, who shot 65, at 12-under. Defending champion William Mouw is four shots behind Glover at 11-under.

Glover is holding a 54-hole lead or co-lead for the seventh time on the PGA Tour. He has converted two of his previous six opportunities, winning both the Wyndham Championship and FedEx St. Jude Championship in 2023. His total of 195 is the second-lowest 54-hole score of his career.

The six-time PGA Tour winner and 2009 US Open champion tied for third at the John Deere Classic last week after also holding the 54-hole lead. That was his first top-10 finish in 16 starts this season.

The ISCO Championship is co-sanctioned by the PGA TOUR and DP World Tour. Sunday’s winner will earn FedExCup and Race to Dubai points and a place in next year’s PGA Championship.
