Justin Thomas will lead Scottie Scheffler by one shot heading into Sunday’s final round of the Hero World Challenge after shooting a bogey-free six-under 66. Thomas, who is currently 17-under par, delivered a solid performance at Albany Golf Club in the Bahamas. Scheffler, the world number one, ended the day with a 69, missing a birdie putt on the 18th hole. Despite the missed opportunity, Scheffler sits at 16-under par, just one shot behind Thomas.
South Korea’s Tom Kim had a spectacular round, moving up seven spots to third place with a 10-under 62. Kim was 11-under for the round after 16 holes but stumbled with a double-bogey on the par-three 17th, ending his hopes of tying the course record of 61. Nevertheless, Kim managed to hole a bunker shot for a birdie on the final hole, leaving him two strokes behind Thomas at 15-under. US Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley continued his strong play with a bogey-free 68, improving to 13-under par, four shots off the lead.
Scotland’s Robert MacIntyre had a mixed final stretch, making four birdies and two bogeys over his last six holes, carding a 68 to finish on 9-under par. England’s Aaron Rai posted a 72, staying at two-under par and is tied for 14th place in the 20-man field. As the tournament heads into its final round, Justin Thomas will look to hold on to his slim lead over a strong chasing pack with Scheffler, Kim and Bradley all within striking distance.
