Keith Mitchell surged ahead in the Sanderson Farms Championship with a stellar 7-under 65 round, finishing with a pair of crucial birdies to secure a one-shot lead going into the final round. Mitchell, aiming for his second PGA Tour victory after more than five years, is now at 20-under 196, just ahead of Beau Hossler.
Despite a slow start, Mitchell's strong finish, including a remarkable birdie putt on the 17th hole and a precise approach on the 18th, propelled him to the top of the leaderboard. Hossler and Daniel Berger were in contention but faced setbacks, with Berger struggling on the back nine and Hossler losing the lead briefly after a double bogey on the 12th hole.
