“I know what I’ve got to do, the numbers are all there,” Alker said. “It’s kind of black and white. I just try and put myself in position to win a golf tournament, that’s big for me. Yeah, [Harrington] played well today, so I’ve got to keep hammering those birdies out.”
Harrington also shot a 64 to reach 12 under, birdieing four of his first five holes and adding four birdies and a single bogey on the back nine.“Look, he’s playing very well,” Harrington said of his opponent. “I played with him every week in the playoffs at this stage and he’s not backing down ... You couldn’t begrudge him where he is at the moment, you couldn’t begrudge him winning this outright, but I’ll try and do that the best I can.
Retief Goosen of South Africa and Brian Gay are tied for third three strokes back at 10 under. Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain and Stephen Ames of Canada are tied for fifth at 9 under, while Scotland’s Colin Montgomerie is in seventh at 8 under.
