Fleetwood came into the weekend with a share of the 36-hole lead in his latest attempt at capturing his first PGA Tour title. It was mostly smooth sailing for Fleetwood for the first 14 holes of his third round, as he was 3 under on his round and pushed the lead out to three shots, as co-leader Russell Henley stalled out.

Fleetwood endured a two-shot swing on the final hole to Bradley that cost him at the Travelers Championship. He lost a two-shot lead with three to play at the FedEx St. Jude Championship. This is his third time with at least a share of the 54-hole lead in his last six events.
