Aberg fired a 61 to sit at 20-under-par heading into Sunday's round. However, playing partner Eric Cole also carded a 61 to sit snug in secondplace at 19-under.

Mackenzie Hughes topped those scores with a 10-under 60 to vault into solo third at 18-under.

Aberg and Cole set career-lows with their matching 61s while Hughes ties his career-low. Aberg and Cole are in search of their first win on the PGA Tour.

Tyler Duncan sits fourth after a 62 and Sam Ryder fell to solo fifth after a 'paltry' 65. Ryder is five shots off the lead.

Padraig Harrington failed to make the cut on Friday.

Aberg has yet to post a bogey through 54 holes. He recorded four birdies andan eagle on five straight holes on the back nine to maintain his lead.

Other golfers taking advantage of the conditions Saturday were Ryan Moore (62), Kevin Tway (63), Charley Hoffman (62), Will Gordon (63) and Harris English (63). Moore and Tway moved into a tie for eighth but they're seven shots off the lead.
