The RBC Heritage | Third Round | April 16
HILTON HEAD - Reigning FedEx Cup Champion Patrick Cantlay holds 36-hole lead/co-lead at the RBC Heritage and for the eighth time on Tour. He’s 1-for-7 in cashing in for the win to date.
Of 13 players at 5-under or better, Cameron Tringale, Cameron Young, and Mito Pereira are seeking their first PGA Tour win.
Following 15 bogey-free rounds Thursday, the most in any single round at Harbour Town Golf Links since 2003, only two were recorded in Round-2 on Friday, as Matthew NeSmith, and Cameron Tringale accomplished the task.
Defending champion and three-time RBC Heritage winner Stewart Cink advanced to the weekend for the 18th time in his 23rd appearance
Competing on a Major Medical Extension in his first PGA TOUR start since the 2019 Shriners Children’s Open, Morgan Hoffmann missed the cut by one stroke. Other notables to also miss by a stroke: Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson and Kevin Kisner.

April 16, 1978 - A week after winning his ninth major title at the Masters with a final round (64), Gary Player won in a come-from-behind manner for a second straight week. Player shot a final round (67) to come back from seven strokes down to win the Tournament of Champions at the LaCosta Resort and Spa in Carlsbad, California. It was his 23rd PGA TOUR title. - Courtesy of Randy Walker, Author of On This Day in Golf History, available via Amazon.com and by clicking HERE
