There will be nerves aplenty throughout the final round of the 2024 John Deere Classic as nine players inside the top-11 chase a first PGA Tour victory and a $1.44 million pay check.
Leader Davis Thompson is one without a win to his name, but he starts in the best position to break that duck as he holds a two-stroke advantage over Aaron Rai and Eric Cole on 21-under. Rai almost triumphed at the Rocket Mortgage Classic just seven days ago, while the closest Cole has come was a playoff against Chris Kirk at the 2023 Honda Classic.
Low scores have been the flavor of the week at TPC Deere Run, with Thompson shooting 62 on Saturday to ascend into first place while Hayden Springer - one of those on 17-under - carded a 59 on Thursday.
That was the 14th sub-60 round in PGA Tour history, just a fortnight on from the 13th time it was achieved by Cameron Young at the Travelers Championship. Young - troubled by a broken driver on Sunday - failed to seal the deal at TPC River Highlands, however.
Jordan Spieth is yet to manage a 59 this week but has seen his scores reduce on each passing day - going 69, 67, and 63 so far. He will likely need a sub-60 round on Sunday if he is to challenge as Thompson begins seven shots in front.
Due to the forecast for storms on Sunday morning at the John Deere Classic, final round tee times will be approx. 9:25 to 11:37 a.m. CT in threesomes off of two tees.July 6, 2024
The already-soft golf course in Silvis, Illinois is primed for low scoring once more after storms were primed to hit the area on Sunday morning. Due to said weather, the PGA Tour announced that groups of three will begin from both the first and the 10th tee between approximately 9:25am CT to 11:37am CT.
Below are all fourth-round tee times for the 2024 John Deere Classic.
