BEN GRIFFIN and Matti Schmid remain locked together at the top of the leaderboard heading into the final round of the Charles Schwab Challenge in Texas on Saturday.

Both men shot third-round 68s at Colonial Country Club, Fort Worth, to share first place on 13 under with Rickie Fowler providing the closest challenge four shots back.

Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre edged himself into contention on eight under after a round of 64 which included seven birdies, and his feat was matched by US PGA champion Scottie Scheffler, who is tied for seventh a shot behind after plundering seven birdies and an eagle.

England’s Tommy Fleetwood is tied for 10th place on six under after carding a level par round of 70.

American Griffin and Germany’s Schmid both endured eventful rounds, picking up shots at each of the first three holes before Griffin surrendered two at the fifth and a third at the sixth, while Schmid dropped shots at the 11th and 17th.
