Poston closing in on John Deere Classic victory

JT Poston is on the verge of completing a wire-to-wire victory at the John Deere Classic as he heads into Sunday's final round in Illinois with a three-shot lead.

The 29-year-old American recovered from two late bogeys with a superb eagle on the par-five 17th to maintain his advantage at the top of the leaderboard with a four-under 67.

Argentina's Emiliano Grillo, who posted a third-round 65, is tied for second with American duo Scott Stallings and Denny McCarthy, while England's Callum Tarren is third after carding back-to-back scores of 65 to sit four shots back on 15 under.

Poston - chasing his second career victory on the PGA Tour after claiming the Wyndham Championship three years ago - said: "The first two days I had everything working great - hitting it great off the tee, irons and making a lot of putts.

"Today wasn't as sharp tee to green and I didn't putt it as well. To be able to still shoot four under, which is still very solid, gives me some confidence going into tomorrow.

"Hopefully I hit it better, but if I don't, I've still got the ability to shoot a decent number."
