Lucas Glover and Lee Hodges enter Sunday’s final round tied atop the 2026 John Deere Classic leaderboard, following shifting margins over the weekend. After maintaining a two-shot advantage into the Fourth of July weekend, Glover shot a 6-under 65 on Friday that included an early eagle and a birdie on his late holes, along with a bogey-free card through 36 holes. Reports also note Glover made a long par putt on his final hole to help secure his position. On Saturday, Glover’s lead narrowed after his first bogey of the tournament, while Lee Hodges made a run with a bogey-free back nine and a string of birdies to catch him. Multiple outlets describe the pair entering Sunday level, with several other players positioned as challengers. CBS Sports lists Max Homa and Zach Johnson among those lurking near the top, while other coverage points to the presence of additional contenders capable of moving into contention as the final round begins.
