Overview
- Johnson shot a 7-under 63 on Saturday to reach 13-under 197 through 54 holes and carry a four-stroke lead into the final round.
- Defending champion Miguel Angel Jiménez answered with a 62 to move into second place and celebrated shooting his age, 62, for the first time.
- Cameron Percy carded an even-par 70 and sits solo third at 7-under while Darren Clarke and Tag Ridings are two strokes further back at 6-under.
- Johnson has already won two PGA Tour Champions events this season and a victory Sunday would be his third, likely moving him higher in the Charles Schwab Cup standings.
- Wet, receptive conditions at Firestone produced unusually low scores and the tournament’s final year at the historic course carries extra stakes for players and for the tour, which will move the event next season.
