The final round of The American Express is set to be a real thriller with multiple fascinating storylines at play in California.
Scheffler is, of course, the dominant force in men’s professional golf and remains the overwhelming favorite at La Quinta’s Pete Dye Stadium Course, but there is a little piece of history on the line for the teenager who could become the second-youngest winner on the PGA Tour.
Not only that, but Brown is playing his eighth consecutive day of professional golf following a T17th finish at the Korn Ferry Tour’s The Bahamas Great Abaco Classic, which took place Sunday through Wednesday.
While most of the support will be with the final group, the trio behind will also carry its fair share of fans as Wyndham Clark, Eric Cole and Tom Hoge aim to cut through the noise and steal a victory.

Big names such as Patrick Cantlay and Russell Henley are potentially a little too far back to really challenge on 17-under and 16-under, respectively, but the pair of serial winners will undoubtedly give everything they have to set a tough marker for those behind.
The leading groups will go off in three balls during the final round, but due to concerns over light in California, the remainder of the field after Saturday’s third-round cut will be sent off over split tees.
Below is the full list of final-round tee times for The American Express 2026.
