2026 RBC Heritage leaderboard updates, Round 3 highlights

Matt Fitzpatrick will be sleeping on the lead once again tonight, and despite all the movement on the leaderboard throughout the day, his lead is actually bigger than it was coming into the third round. Fitzpatrick bounced back from a slow start to shoot 3-under 68 Saturday. He’s 17 under, three shots clear of World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, who sits in solo second. Fitzpatrick is seeking his second win of the season, his second win at the RBC Heritage and his fourth career PGA Tour victory.

After holing a putt from off the green for birdie at No. 14, Matt Fitzpatrick chipped in for eagle at the 15th to get to 17 under. Suddenly, he’s the leader by three with three holes to play in the third round.

Harris English hit this absolute beauty on the 15th and rolled in the putt for birdie to get back to 12 under and within three shots of the lead as of 5:15 p.m. ET Saturday.

Matt Fitzpatrick rolled one in from off the green at the par-3 14th to get to 1 under for the day and 15 under for the tournament. He’s the solo leader once again as of 5 p.m. ET, one shot clear of Scottie Scheffler.

The World No. 1 looked a lot like the World No. 1 on Saturday at Harbour Town. Scottie Scheffler made eight birdies to offset a lone bogey en route to a 7-under 64. Scheffler began the day seven shots behind 36-hole leader Matt Fitzpatrick but walked off the 18th green tied with him at 14 under.

Matt Fitzpatrick, the 36-hole leader, got back to even par on the day and regained the solo lead at the RBC Heritage with a birdie at the par-4 12th. He’s one shot clear of a four-way tie for second as of 4:45 p.m. ET.

Scottie Scheffler made his seventh birdie of the day at the par-4 16th to get to 13 under and into a three-way tie for the lead with Matt Fitzpatrick and Brian Harman as of 4:25 p.m. ET on Saturday.

Andrew Novak will be defending his title next week at the Zurich Classic alongside teammate Ben Griffin, but before he heads to New Orleans, Novak has an important Sunday ahead of him. He made three bogeys Saturday at the RBC Heritage but offset them with seven birdies and an eagle en route to a 6-under 65. He was part of a four-way tie for third when he signed his scorecard just before 4:30 p.m. ET.

“It’s a bunched leaderboard,” Novak said. “Nobody has really separated yet. I’m going to be maybe a few shots back going into tomorrow, but it’s going to take a pretty low one, I think, because there’s enough guys up there, somebody is going to put together a pretty good round.

“I think I kind of got to go in with the same kind of attack mentality as today and get it going, go post a number, and see how guys handle the wind late.”

Si Woo Kim shot 4-under 32 on the front nine but stumbled with a bogey at the 12th. He bounced right back by draining this long birdie putt at No. 13 and he’s one off the lead as of 4:05 p.m. ET Saturday.

Matt Fitzpatrick pulled driver on No. 9 and roped one toward the left side of the drivable green. It looked as if it was heading straight for the bunker, but instead it took a wild hop and caromed to the back side of the putting surface. He two-putted for birdie to regain a share of the lead.

Brian Harman made birdie on four of his last five holes to cap off an 8-under 63 in the third round of the RBC Heritage. He is the leader in the clubhouse and was tied at the top with Matt Fitzptarick at 13 under when he signed his scorecard just before 3:15 p.m. ET Saturday.

We have a four-way tie at the top as of 3 p.m. ET on Saturday at the RBC Heritage. Brian Harman drained this shot from the bunker for his eighth birdie of the day to get to 12 under, joining Scottie Scheffler, Matt Fitzpatrick and Harris English atop the leaderboard.

Matt Fitzpatrick made his second bogey in three holes to start Saturday’s third round while Scottie Scheffler rolled in a birdie putt at the par-4 ninth to move to 12 under and join Fitzpatrick in a tie for the lead as of 2:45 p.m. ET. Scheffler’s birdie capped off a 5-under 31 on the front nine.

The final pairing of 36-hole leader Matt Fitzpatrick and Viktor Hovland has teed off and the third round of the RBC Heritage is fully underway. It was not an ideal start for either man, as both made bogey to drop one shot back toward the rest of the field. A day that started as a two-horse race has rapidly turned into a tightly-contested tournament with dozens of players in contention.

Scottie Scheffler is on fire. The World No. 1 and 2024 RBC Heritage champion made his fifth birdie of the day at the par-4 sixth to get to 12 under and within two of Matt Fitzpatrick’s lead as of 2:10 p.m. ET Saturday.

Collin Morikawa lost his balance but still managed to find the green on this incredible bunker shot.

World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler made four birdies in his first five holes Saturday to get to 11 under for the tournament and into solo third, four shots off the lead as of 1:50 p.m. ET.

Gary Woodland made an eagle at the par-5 second and birdie at the third to get to 10 under and into a tie for fourth as of 1:50 p.m. ET Saturday.

Matt Fitzpatrick (14 under) and Viktor Hovland (13 under) still have about 20 minutes until their tee time, but the leaderboard is already bunching up behind them with a slew of heavy hitters putting themselves in contention on moving day. As of 1:35 p.m. ET, there are four players tied for third at 10 under and 11 players tied for seventh at 9 under.

Scottie Scheffler and Collin Morikawa are playing together Saturday at the RBC Heritage, both beginning the day at 7 under and seven shots off the lead. Scheffler opened his third round with a birdie at the first, while Morikawa made par. This will be a pairing to keep an eye on, as both players are prime candidates to make a big move on moving day.

Jordan Spieth struggled on the greens last week at Augusta, but this week he has been wielding the flatstick like a champ (unfortunately, he’s been all over the place tee-to-green). The 2022 RBC Heritage champ is having a solid day thus far at Harbour Town. He’s 3 under through 15 holes thanks in part ot back-to-back birdies at Nos. 8 and 9.

It’s looking like another mighty fine weather day on Hilton Head Island. The forecast calls for high temperatures around 80 degrees with sunny skies and 0% chance of rain. The wind could pose a challenge to the players late in the day, though, with a 10-15 mph breeze coming from the south.

Here’s a look at where the pins will be set for Saturday’s third round action at Harbour Town:
