Munoz, who carded a 61 on Thursday, entered the weekend with a three-stroke lead. While others were able to catch up and earn a share of the lead, a strong back nine put him back in charge.
His putting was especially impressive just as it has been throughout the week. This birdie on No. 15 helped extend his lead, via the Golf Channel:
He is now 18 holes from his first career victory if he can continue his outstanding all-round play.
However, this tournament is far from over. Streb was one of those charging toward the lead, finishing with a 65 thanks to some of the best shots you will ever see.
This long putt from off the green was one of the top moments of the day, via the PGA Tour:
Shots like this also went a long way toward his excellent round:
Whether it was luck or skill, Streb was nearly unstoppable Saturday to shoot up the leaderboard and sit in second place.
Russell Henley also moved into a share of the lead at one point, but back-to-back bogeys on 16 and 17 moved him down the list. It benefited Schauffele, who continued his solid run in the tournament as well with a 66 to put him 11-under for the tournament.
This long putt for an eagle on No. 12 was clearly his best moment of the day:
Among the other contenders, Davis Love III is one of the more surprising on the leaderboard after finishing at 10-under. Jason Sobel of ESPN discussed the stakes for the veteran golfer:
A couple of big movers put themselves in contention going into the final day, including J.B. Holmes. He entered the day in 33rd place, but a bogey-free round with four birdies gave him a 66, good enough for a tie for 11th place.
Chad Campbell also moved up 43 spots after scoring a 65, putting him at six-under for the tournament.
Meanwhile, big names like Phil Mickelson (E) and Bubba Watson (+1) remain far out of contention after uneven performances throughout the week.
Still, there are a lot of players within contention who can catch the leaders, creating what will likely be an exciting final round in West Virginia.
Sunday's action can be seen on CBS from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET.
