Åberg got two bogeys but quickly saved it with two birdies, and went the third round on par. This means that his total result of six under par after three played rounds remains.

The result means, however, that the Swede slips down five places to a shared 16th place, before the fourth and final round begins on Sunday. The Englishman Tommy Fleetwood is leading with 14 strokes under par.

Despite the loss, Åberg still keeps himself in the upper part of the result list in the competition, where the 70 highest ranked players get to participate. The top 50 then proceed to the next competition in Baltimore.

Thereafter, the top 30 get to play the final in Atlanta which is played between August 21-24. The final winner of the tour final is expected to receive just over 96 million kronor (10 million dollars) in prize money, according to CBS Sports.
