Kiwi golfer Ryan Fox has picked four shots in his third round to sit in a tie for seventh at the PGA Tour’s Sanderson Farms Championship in Mississippi.

Fox made par on the first six holes before a birdie on the par-three seventh hole, followed by another par on the eighth, however, he then bogeyed the ninth.


On the back-nine, he birdied the 10th and 11th and finished with birdies on the final two holes.

Fox carded 67 for his first and 66 in his second round.


A top-10 finish would almost assure Fox of his PGA Tour card in 2025. He is currently 109th, with the top-125 making the cut.


Meanwhile in Scotland, at the Alfred Dunhill Links tournament, Daniel Hillier is tied for 13th at 14-under after a third round two-under 70 at Kingsbarns Golf Links.


Taranaki leftie Sam Jones moved up to 28th after carding a third-round 67 at Kingsbarns, while Canterbury's Kazuma Kobori has also improved after a third-round 67 at St Andrews Old Course, just making the cut on the cut-line at nine-under.
