Rahm made a sweeping, left-to-right 46-footer from the fringe for birdie while Homa parred. It’s the second straight week that the No. 1 ranking changed hands.

“I wanted to push . He is a spectacular golfer,” Homa said. “I would say other than Tiger and I don’t even know, he’s the most consistent player I’ve seen. I’ve known him since college and he’s been like this since then, No. 1 amateur in the world, No. 1 player in the world, all the accolades.”Cantlay shot a 67 and finished third at 14 under. Will Zalatoris had the low round of the day, a 7-under 64, to grab fourth place at 13 under. Keith Mitchell was fifth at 12 under.
