Matthew Wolff heads pack hunting Adam Schenk: Final round preview of the Shriners Children’s Open
Last week’s winner Sam Burns is also right in the mix with 18 holes to play at TPC Summerlin.
Simple words from Matthew Wolff after he carded a third round 65 to move into solo second at the Shriners Children's Open, just one shot back of the third round pace-setter Adam Schenk.
His quest for a second PGA Tour title will require him to pass the untested Schenk, and both of them will be pressed by last week's winner Sam Burns, who shares third with Andrew Putnam and Chad Ramey on 16-under. Sungjae Im is alone in sixth a further shot adrift.
Schenk - leading on 18-under

Conclusion
Schenck ranks 15th for SG Tee to Green with Wolff, Ramey and Burns all comfortably in the top 10 (Burns leads the field).
It looks good for Jack Kelliher's pre-tournament pick of Sam Burns.
