There is a clear group that has separated from the rest of the field atop the leaderboard at the 2024 Paris Olympics. Entering the weekend, Japan’s Hideki Matsuyama, Great Britain’s Tommy Fleetwood and the United States’ Xander Schauffele are all tied at 11 under. Spain’s Jon Rahm (-9) is solo fourth, two back of that trio of leaders.
All four of those golfers will tee it up in the final two tee times Saturday as Moving Day commences at Le Golf National. And while it’s possible that someone else could come from beyond those four to medal, it’s doubtful that anyone will pass all four to win gold on Sunday.
The United States’ Scottie Scheffler (-6) and Ireland’s Rory McIlroy (-5) are just back of those four golfers; they will tee off just ahead of them in the third round. They will receive plenty of support as will the French golfers who will play toward the start of the day.
Frenchman Matthieu Pavon goes at 3:11 a.m. ET, and Victor Perez will tee off at 5:55 a.m. alongside Great Britain’s Matt Fitzpatrick and Argentina’s Alejandro Tosti.
Let’s take a look at all the tee times and groups the big crowds at Le Golf National will be following on Saturday. Check out CBS Sports’ complete 2024 Paris Olympics golf schedule and TV coverage guide so you can watch as much action as possible.
