The drama is building at Harbour Town! Matt Fitzpatrick, the defending champion, managed to extend his lead at the RBC Heritage on Saturday, but the real story was the charging world number one, Scottie Scheffler, storming into second place.

Fitzpatrick's three-under 68 was a rollercoaster. After a shaky start with bogeys on the first and third holes, he found his rhythm in spectacular fashion. The highlight was a stunning stretch where he holed out from off the green for a birdie on the 14th and followed it with an eagle chip-in on the 15th, opening up a three-stroke lead to finish the day at 17-under par.

However, breathing down his neck is Scottie Scheffler. Starting the day seven shots back, Scheffler ignited the leaderboard with a blistering start, carding five birdies in his first six holes. His seven-under 64 was the statement round of the day, propelling him to 14-under and setting the stage for a thrilling final-round duel.

Fitzpatrick is now in prime position to claim his second consecutive RBC Heritage title and his fourth PGA Tour win, a resume that already includes last month's Valspar Championship and the 2022 U.S. Open. But with the hottest player in golf, Scheffler, just three shots behind, Sunday's finale promises high-stakes drama on the iconic Harbour Town Golf Links.
