Si Woo Kim took the lead into Sunday’s final round of the CJ Cup Byron Nelson at TPC Craig Ranch after a third round that included a brief five-shot cushion, then a late slide that kept the tournament tight. PGA Tour coverage and an Associated Press round-three report said Kim was at 21-under par entering Sunday, with Scottie Scheffler and Wyndham Clark tied for second at 19-under. (pgatour.com) That setup matters because the margin changed fast on Saturday. The AP report said Kim had built a five-shot lead while threatening a sub-60 round before giving shots back late, leaving Scheffler and Clark within two by the end of the day. (pgatour.com) Sunday’s final pairing reflected that leaderboard. PGA Tour listings showed Kim and Scheffler grouped together for a 10:40 a.m. start, while Clark went off at 10:30 a.m. alongside Stephan Jaeger. (pgatour.com) Scheffler’s presence added local and competitive weight. Yahoo Sports reported Sunday that the reigning champion and Dallas-area resident had set up what it called a “dream scenario” with Kim in the final group at the Byron Nelson. (sports.yahoo.com) The broader context is that TPC Craig Ranch had already produced very low scoring in recent years. Yardbarker, citing comments from Lanny Wadkins after Scheffler’s 31-under winning total in 2025, said tournament organizers wanted the renovated course to yield a winning score closer to 18-under. Even so, the Sunday leaders were already well past that mark. (sports.yahoo.com) For anyone following the finish, the most concrete next markers were the live leaderboard and final-round tee sheet. PGA Tour coverage listed Kim first at 21-under, with Scheffler and Clark two back as play began Sunday in McKinney, Texas. (pgatour.com)
