HE WOULD HAVE SEVERAL OTHER BIG MOMENTS ON THE GREENS. AT THE 10th ANOTHER ONE. AFTER THAT BEAUTIFUL TEE SHOT, HIT AN IRON SHOT TO 20 FEET AWAY AFTER TURNING 32, GETS ONE TO THE GOOD. SETS THE TENOR FOR THE BACK NINE. WHAT HE HAS BEEN DOING WELL THIS YEAR, EVERY ASPECT OF HIS GAME IS MARVELOUS WHEN YOU ADD IT UP, ONLY SIX PLAYERS WHO ARE BETTER ON THE PGA TOUR IMPROVEMENT THERE IN STROKES GAINED APPROACH. HAS NO REALLY REAL WEAKNESSES OTHER THAN, I WOULD SAY, NOT DOMINANT IN TERMS OF DISTANCE OFF THE TEE. TO WHATEVER DEGREE HE HAS BEEN HELD BACK, AND THIS IS WHAT HELD HIM BACK, HIS CLUBHEAD SPEED HAS DECAYED IN AN ERA WHERE EVERYBODY IS TRYING TO GET LONGER AND FASTER. HIS IS NOW JUST SHY OF 115 MILES AN HOUR. THAT’S 125th ON THE TOUR. 135th IN DRIVING DISTANCE, WHICH MAKES IT HARDER FOR HIM TO BEAT UP THE PAR 5s. POWER FIVE SCORING AVERAGE 86. PAR 5 BIRDIE OR BETTER 93. WHEN YOU ARE COMPETING AGAINST RORY OR BRYSON DeCHAMBEAU, XANDER SCHAUFFELE, SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER, YOU ARE GIVING UP A LOT OF HARDING PARK OFF OF THE TEE. A GOLF COURSE LIKE THIS, WHICH IS SNEAKY HARD WHEN YOU MISS THE FAIRWAYS, AND NOT PARTICULARLY DIFFICULT AS IT RELATES TO PAR 5s. TWO OF THEM AND EVERYBODY IN THE FIELD CAN GET THERE IN TWO. HE IS LEADING THE FIELD IN DRIVING ACCURACY, 69th OUT OF 70 IN DRIVING DISTANCE. HE IS NOT SHORT. RELATIVE TO THOSE GET THE LION’S SHARE OFICTORIES AT THE TOP, HE GIVES UP A LOT OF HORSEPOWER. >> TPC RIVER HIGHLANDS HAS PRODUCED SOP HITTERS OF THIS ILK WHO WERE SHORTER THAN TOMMY FLEETWOOD. >> CHEZ REAVIE TO NAME ONE, RIGHT. KEN DUKE. >> RUSSELL KNOX. KEVIN STREELMAN. >> IT GAVE US SOME OF THE LONGEST HITTERS IN BUBBA WATSON AND SHORTEST IN CHEZ REEF VIE. THIS GOLF COURSE IS ABOUT CONTROL. IT IS A VERY DIFFICULT GOLF COURSE FOR # 4 HOLE LEADERS. ONLY FOUR OF THE LAST 13 54-HOLE LEADERS CONVERT FOR THE WIN HERE AT TRAVELERS. >> GEORGE SAVARICAS NOW WITH THE LEADER. IT IS TOMMY FLEETWOOD. >> WITH THE 54-HOLE LEADER TOMMY FLEETWOOD, SHOULD START CALLING YOU TOMMY EAGLE. EAGLE THE 13th. TWO CO-LEADERS STRUGGLED TODAY. HOW DID YOU TAKE CONTROL OF THIS CHAMPIONSHIP WITH A 63? >> YEAH, I PLAYED REALLY WELL. I WAS REALLY HAPPY WITH HOW MY GAME STARTED, THE EXECUTION OF THE GOLF SHOTS I HIT, ROLLED IN A COUPLE OF PUTTS THE FIRST HANDSFUL OF HOLES. YEAH, FROM THERE JUST KEPT IT GOING. FELT LIKE I PLAYED SOLID. I DIDN’T REALIZE, I HIT 14 FAIRWAYS. PUTTING THE BALL IN POSITION A LOT AND GIVING MYSELF A CHANCE TO CONTROL MY IRONS AND HOLE A FEW PUTTS. FEELS LIKE THAT’S HOW YOU SHOULD PLAY GOLF. IT’S NOT JUST NOT THAT EASY ALL THE TIME. >> A THREE-SHOT LEAD GOING INTO THE FINAL ROUND. HOW CRITICAL DO YOU THINK THAT CUSHION WILL BE AS YOU TRY TO GET YOUR FIRST WIN? >> HOPEFULLY, VERY. I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING OUT IN THIS POSITION. I HAVE SAID IT A FEW TIMES. I DON’T FEEL LIKE I HAVE BEEN IN CONTENTION THIS YEAR. MY BEST RESULTS HAVE BEEN ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF BEING IN CONTENTION LIKE VERY, VERY CLOSE BUT NOT QUITE THERE. HAD GREAT FINISHES AND PLAYED VERY, VERY CONSISTENTLY. I DON’T FEEL LIKE I’VE — I HAVE NOT PLAYED IN THE FINAL GROUP ON A SUNDAY YET. THIS IS GREAT. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO IT. AND STILL IT’S — I THINK IT’S ONE OF THE
