Fourtown-Sepp Straka, Pennsylvania, hopes to be the second multiple title of the PGA Tour season. Shane Lowry is seeking his first solo title since 2019.

Straka scored four with 66 and Lowry shared a lead in the finals of a 67 in the storm on Saturday, Wissahickon course.

In the final round of the Truist championship, the pairing was not much different. Straka is ready to deal with the final pair of the final round, while Lowry is pleased with the pressure on the final round as he strives to end the long winless.

“All you can do is try to focus on what you can control, and that’s your goal, try to hit your phone number and try to get a good swing,” said American Express winner in January, Straka, who will join three-time champion Rory McIlroy with Sunday’s win. "You feel bad when you try to do it, but that's just part of it. It's fun when you can pull it away."

Meanwhile, Lowry is confident that he has been in the position to win his personal championship for the first time since the 2019 British Open.

"Constant knocking on the door, and you'll end up going through it. I feel like I did a great job this season last season. It's really frustrating at times." Lowry teamed up with McIlroy to win the team event in New Orleans last year. "I'm going out and doing my best. If tomorrow is good, that's great."

Two shots began the day, Straka countered his only bogey with five birdies (two in the last four holes) and made a clutch putt from 16.5 feet in No. 18.

Lowry, 38, Ireland, matched Straka's birdie on 489 yards on the 17th, and he will pair the 32-year-old Austrian in the final round of the signature season six of the PGA Tour.

Keith Mitchell is the leader behind 18 and 36 holes, working hard in a round of 1. He and Justin Thomas were in the Under 11 game and despite bogeys at 67, he still charged the rankings.

Defending champion McIlroy took action early, then subsequently sabotaged three birds with bogey. He has a smooth defender Nine, a birdie who tied with Nick Taylor (67), Sam Burns (67), Sungjae IM (67) and Tony Finau (67) after 69.

The player handled the third change in match conditions. Two days after the 64 players broke par, the day after the 7,100-yard layout cooled down the score, Saturday's winds were 12 mph - gusts of gusts up to 27 mph - and faster vegetables made the score low.

"It's great to see the way the conditions are coming into it today," Laurie said. "The golf course is very good to stand up.

“Today is very difficult in these winds, especially when it’s hard to open the putt.”

Straka agreed.

"Trying to develop strategies every day in a new golf hole on a T-shirt box and trying to figure out the best way to do it," he said.

Straka proved to be the most stable of leaders. He started the fifth round and led by a bogey-free first nine, including two birdies. He ended his round with five birdies and a bogey.

Lowry and partner Mitchell had a tie with Mitchell in the first game, the duo took the lead through the top nine, and the turn was under 13 and was at a deadlock, with Straka in a hole ahead. Lowry led by 17 feet on 459 yards, but was forced to settle in the tie after a strong victory in Straka.

Thomas sought a second victory in many starts after occupying the legacy of Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), three of three of the four holes in the front nine holes and added back-to-back birds behind to compete.

Mitchell went out of his way to maintain the lead, but the bogey at No. 3, 4, 8, 10 and 14 was his withdrawal. He stabilized himself and closed on four pars.

McIlroy struggled, with only 3 of 14 fairways. His guard nine out of nine, he will start his fifth shot behind the leader, his first solo victory in his first solo competition since finishing a professional Grand Slam in the Masters last month.
