When a tournament boasts the best golfers in the world with a short golf course and little wind, scores will be low. That\u2019s what occurred on Saturday at Harbour Town for the third round of the RBC Heritage.\u00a035 players are currently 10-under or better. The field was a combined 223-under par, the most of any round in the tournament\u2019s history.\u00a0Six shot a Saturday low eight-under 63, including 54-hole co-leader Tyrrell Hatton.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would certainly be nice to go out there tomorrow with potentially a chance to win,\u201d\u00a0Hatton said to reporters after his third round.<\/span><\/a>\u00a0\u201cObviously, a lot of confidence from winning a few months ago, and hopefully a good day tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hatton\u2019s first PGA Tour win came at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. His iron play into the greens sets up a ton of birdie opportunities; Hatton ranks first on the PGA Tour in strokes gained: approach the green (1.42) and tee-to-green (2.61).<\/p>\n
With Hatton gaining an average of three strokes on the field per round, it explains why he is at the top of the leaderboard. He\u2019s missed just one putt inside six feet over the three days and is successful from long distance. On the 18th hole, Hatton sank a 24-foot birdie putt, his eighth of the round.<\/p>\n
