Englishman Tyrrell Hatton extended his lead at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and will take a two-shot lead into Sunday’s final round, writes ANDRE HUISAMEN.
A third round 73 was enough for him to keep his lead at 6 under par for the competition but a lot can obviously still happen on Sunday.
Hatton will be hoping to stay clear of Marc Leishman and Rory McIlroy, who finished the third round on 4 under par and very much in contention to win in Florida.

Christiaan Bezuidenhout, who has been in fighting distance since the start is also still in with a shot and will start the final round three shots off the pace.
On what proved to be a difficult scoring day, Bezuidenhout went one over for his round that included five bogeys but only four birdies.
South Africa’s Dylan Frittelli could only manage a 74 on Saturday as he went two over par for his round after making it to 1 under par at the halfway mark of the competition.
