It is the fifth time the Spaniard has held the 54-hole lead on the LIV Golf League circuit and he will once again be the man to catch on Sunday.
Rahm will be joined in the final group by Legion XIII teammate Tyrrell Hatton, who carded a five-under 66 to move into solo second on 12 under. It marks the first time the pair have been grouped together in the final round since joining LIV Golf ahead of the 2024 season.
Tom McKibbin
A further shot back, Tom McKibbin is tied for third at 11 under alongside Branden Grace, leaving both players firmly within striking distance heading into the final round. McKibbin’s position means three Legion XIII players sit inside the top three on the leaderboard.
Just behind them, a group of five players are tied at 10 under, including Harold Varner III, Josele Ballester, David Puig, Scott Vincent and Matthew Wolff, ensuring a tightly packed chasing group with plenty of scoring potential on a course that has already produced low numbers.
Puig delivered the standout performance of the third round, firing a nine-under 62 to surge up the leaderboard. The Spaniard’s round left him just one shot shy of the course record.
Rahm’s consistency has been a key feature of his week, with the Legion XIII captain extending his run to eight consecutive rounds in the 60s. He has now broken 70 in 21 of his 23 rounds this season.
Legion XIII also hold a commanding advantage in the team event, taking a 15-shot lead into the final round as they look to convert their strong position into victory.
