Schwab has an 18-under 198 total.

Patrick Reed shot his second straight 65 to join a group of five players in second place on 15 under at the Montgomerie Maxx Royal. The others are: England's Ross Fisher (68) and Tyrrell Hatton (65), Scotland's Robert MacIntyre (67), and France's Benjamin Hebert (64).

Two-time defending champion Justin Rose shot a 1-over 73 and is nine strokes off the pace.
