Seamus Power’s low round of the week has him battling for a top-10 spot at the Bank of Utah Championship.
Power, who made the weekend with a birdie on the final hole of his second round, got around in 64 to move to 13 under, 10 shots behind leader Austin Smotherman.
The Waterford man had a tidy round, with three birdies on the way out – at 11, 14 and 18 – before coming home on the front nine with birdies at three, four, seven and nine.
It leaves him in a tie for 21st alongside four other players.
Smotherman goes into the final round with the same goal as the golfer one stroke behind him — to win for the first time on the PGA Tour.
Smotherman shot 65 to get to 23 under par, with Doug Ghim at 22 under after his 64 on Saturday at the Black Desert Resort
Ghim, in his 192nd start on tour, will be paired on Sunday with Smotherman, in his 100th career start.
“I think it’s good pressure,” said Smotherman.
“That’s what we work for. That’s the spot you want to be. Coming down, you hold all the cards. Yeah, I’m sure there’s going to be some energy.”
Smotherman has two top-10 finishes this year and is 79th in the FexExCup Fall series standings.
