Stewart Cink is on the verge of an eighth PGA Tour title after he extended his lead at the RBC Heritage to five strokes on Saturday.
The 47-year-old Cink broke the 36-hole course record at Harbour Town as he headed into moving day on 16 under par.
A more composed third round followed, however, but he managed to maintain his determination that saw him sign off with a two-under-par 69.
Cink will start Sunday’s final round five shots ahead of Collin Morikawa, who moved up to 13 under after Saturday’s action.
