SHANE LOWRY IS seven shots off the lead heading into the final round of the Tour Championship after a third round of 68 to leave him in a tie for seventh on nine-under.
Patrick Cantlay and Tommy Fleetwood are the joint-leaders on 16-under at East Lake Country Club in Atlanta, Georgia. Russell Henley is on 14-under while Keegan Bradley is just behind on 13-under and Scottie Scheffler is one shot further back.
Lowry, who drained a stunning a near 100-foot putt yesterday, remains in contention after picking up five birdies today.
The Offaly man was three-under after an impressive front nine before dropping a shot on the 11th. He recovered with a birdie on 13 before a mixed run to the finish, slipping up with back-to-back bogeys on 16 and 17. His fifth birdie on the last saw him sign off on a two-under 68.
