Scottie Scheffler was tied for the lead when he returned from the delay and birdied three of his final four holes for a 66. Rickie Fowler was another shot behind, a big step toward making the Tour Championship for a shot at the FedEx Cup.

This will be the first time Cromie has caddied for Scheffler, but the pre-tournament time together should be beneficial — at least relative to an unexpected fill-in. Scheffler was never won a PGA Tour event without Scott as his caddie.
