Dustin Johnson and Brooks Koepka appeared to be the betting favourites heading into the weekend but both faltered miserably with rounds of 72 to fall back to 7-under and 9-under respectively.
Phil Mickelson carded a third consecutive 68 to progress to 9-under, while Woods carded the same score to move up to 3-under.
DeChambeau, Finau, Mickelson and Woods will all be looking to impress US Ryder Cup captain Jim Furyk on Sunday as they go in search of earning one of his four wildcard picks.
