"If I had putted a little bit better today, I'd be right in it," Love III told CBS Sports after a round of 68.
Best round - Robert Streb
Streb canned a 91-foot birdie putt on the opening hole, then added four more birdies and an eagle for a 5-under-par 65. The 30-year-old sits in solo second place at 12-under par for the tournament, two strokes back of Sebastian Munoz.

Shot of the day - Streb at No. 12
Streb found the deep rough off the tee at the par-5 12th, but gashed his 231-yard approach with a hybrid onto the green, setting up an easy eagle putt.

Biggest disappointment - Ben Martin

Sunday's storylines
- Munoz has a world ranking of 410, but will up that Sunday if he wins his first PGA Tour title.
- Sunday's top four finishers who aren't already in the Open Championship field will earn tickets to the 146th Open at Royal Birkdale.
