Séamus Power sits four shots off the lead in the AT&T Byron Nelson after he carded a round of 67 on Saturday.
Power’s strong week in Texas continued as he produced a blemish-free round, with three birdies and an eagle leaving him in contention heading into Sunday.
At the top of the leaderboard by one stroke is Sam Burns after his three-under 69 on day three.
After a 10-under 62 on Friday, the 24-year-old had a mixed start after matching two birdies with a pair of bogeys in the first six holes.
After two more birdies he almost eagled the par-five 18th but had to settle for tapping in for another birdie, which moved him to 20-under for the tournament.
South Korea’s Lee Kyoung-Hoon finished with a 67, which still allowed him to move from third to second place after taking 65s in the first two rounds.
An eagle on the par-five fifth boosted Alex Noren, who is chasing his first PGA Tour victory, but the Swede’s day was tarnished by bogeys at the first and 13th as he shot a 70 to drop from second to equal-third.
Sharing that spot with Noren three strokes off the pace were South Africa’s Charl Schwartzel and Americans Matt Kuchar and Jordan Spieth, who all shot 66.
Spieth repeated his impressive putting from the first day on the 18th, with the hometown hero again rolling in another eagle putt but this time doing it from the fringe behind the hole.
English veteran Luke Donald carded a 66 to be eight strokes off the pace, compatriot Lee Westwood was another shot back at 11-under overall while Scottish pair Russell Knox and Martin Laird shot 70 and 71 to be 10 and seven under respectively.
