GUYANCOURT, France (Reuters) - U.S. defending champion Xander Schauffele and Spain's Jon Rahm remained tied atop the leaderboard with popular Briton Tommy Fleetwood and world number one Scottie Scheffler close behind as the men's Olympic golf was set for a nail-biting finish on Sunday.

In the final group on the course, overnight co-leaders Schauffele and Rahm traded birdies to reach 16 under after five holes, one ahead of Fleetwood in third as the Englishman who starred in Europe's 2018 Ryder Cup win over the United States at the same course was again cheered on by the crowd.
