DP World Tour 2022, Hero Open, Fairmont St Andrews, Fife, Scotland, 28-31 July: Day 3


An eagle on the 18th puts Sean Crocker two ahead as he looks to make it wire-to-wire in Fife

From DP World Tour News:

Sean Crocker's sensational chip-in eagle at the 18th handed him a two-shot lead heading into the final round as he bids to secure his maiden DP World Tour title at the 2022 Hero Open.

The American showed impressive patience and a calm head on a testing third day at Fairmont St Andrews to remain on course for a wire-to-wire victory.

After making four birdies and a single bogey in his opening 12 holes on Saturday, Crocker ran into trouble at the 13th as he could not find a way out of the thick rough after two shots and also had a wall to worry about as he prepared to take his third.  Read more

From the Irish Times:

The American also carded four birdies, one bogey and a double bogey in testing conditions at Fairmont St Andrews to sign for a third-round 69.

Best of the Irish contingent ahead of Sunday’s action is Niall Kearney, his third round 72 leaves him 10 under par overall and in a tie for 24th.  Read more
