Brandt Snedeker and Beau Hossler have each shot rounds of five-under 67 to join J.J. Spaun and Dylan Frittelli atop the leaderboard after the third round of the Valero Texas Open.
Both Spaun, who shot 69, and Frittelli (70) bogeyed the last hole to finish with a share of the lead at 10-under 206.
Another final-hole bogey kept Scott Stallings out of the lead. He also shot 65 and was a shot back at nine-under.
Australians Matt Jones and Aaron Baddeley (both 68) were in a tie for 21st at five-under.
Second-round leader Ryan Palmer didn't have a bogey on Friday. On Saturday he didn't have a birdie and dropped to 21st place with a 5-over 77.
With a bogey-free round, Snedeker was 4-under on the backside. He is looking for his first win since 2018. It would be his 10th tour victory.
Spaun and Hossler are each looking for his first tour win and Frittelli won in 2019 at the John Deere Classic.
Maverick McNealy matched the best round of the day with 65, and he was three shots back with Charles Howell III (72), Si Woo Kim (68), Denny McCarthy (68), Troy Merritt (69), Aaron Rai (68), Brendon Todd (72) and Gary Woodland (72).
Hossler had three-straight birdies starting at No. 14 when all of his approach shots finished less than 10 feet from the hole. A pro since 2016 after playing at University of Texas, Hossler has a career-best finish of second in the 2018 Houston Open and was third this year at Pebble Beach.
