Matt Fitzpatrick had a slow start that brought Scottie Scheffler back into the mix Saturday until holing two shots from off the green on the back nine that sent him to a three-under 68 and a three-shot lead in the RBC Heritage.

He finished by smashing a nine-iron from 196 with the wind at his back to 10 feet for a final birdie and a seven-under 64, enough to briefly tie Fitzpatrick for the lead. Just not for long.
