by Tommy Fleetwood will go to the last round of the Fedex St Jude championship with an advance at a blow while he continues the hunt for his first title of tour.
Fleetwood drew less than 69 in the third round, just going his English colleague Justin Rose.

The tension between the two stood up at the start of the round after Fleetwood doubled the third hole while Rose was Birdie, a three -stroke swing which radically reduced the 34 -year advance.
Fleetwood replied well, rebuilding his three -shooting lead. But its advantage again shrinks on the 18th hole, where a rugged journey led to a Bogey.
The world number one Scottie Scheffler also launched himself in the running with six Birdies, finishing two shooting on 65 on Saturday.
JJ Spaun and Andrew Novak are a gunshot further, tied in the fourth row out of 11 under the peer.
“It’s just another opportunity for me to go out and try to have the best golf round that I can, take advantage of this position,” said Fleetwood on the PGA Tour website.

“The more I put myself there, the more likely there is a chance to perform, and to go out and continue to learn from each experience.

“It could be my day, it may not be the case, but being there is the most important thing and I will continue to try to do it.”
Only the 70 best in the Fedex ranking of a season qualified for the event, although Rory McILroy has chosen not to play this week, with the top 50 after the tournament that reached the BMW championship next week.
The top 30 after that will dispute the Tour championship in pursuing a bonus of $ 10 million (7.4 million pounds sterling).
