The prestigious John Deere Classic 2024 is now nearing its end. The third round has brought some unpredictable changes to the leaderboard. Jordan Spieth has shown an amazing recovery in Round 3. The final round will be played this Sunday.

Davis Thompson holds a two-stroke lead heading into the final round, having carded a 9-under 62 in the third round. Thompson sits at 21-under par. The 25-year-old from Atlanta holds a two-stroke advantage over last year’s PGA Tour Rookie of the Year Eric Cole, and Aaron Rai.

Cole and Rai are currently tied for second place. Cole finished runner-up at last week’s Rocket Mortgage Classic. Rai is a two-time winner on the DP World Tour.
