Englishman shoots 64 to reach 13-under
Leaders Adrien Saddier and Alex Norén two shots ahead
Thoughts have inevitably turned towards how Tyrrell Hatton may celebrate victory here. Not only was the Englishman denied proper euphoria when claiming the PGA Championship in 2020 – those were Covid times – but he started this week depicting himself waking up in a pool of his own vomit after qualifying for Europe’s Ryder Cup team.
Hatton forms part of the European contingent who will fly to New York for a scouting mission as soon as this tournament ends. He may have a trophy for hand luggage and further partying in mind.
His 64 was the standout round of day three on the West Course. He sits two behind the Frenchman Adrien Saddier and the resurgent Swede Alex Norén with 18 holes to play. Saddier and Norén are 15 under par.
