WOBURN, England — Matthew Fitzpatrick kept up his hopes of becoming the youngest-ever winner of the British Masters when the 21-year-old ended the third round in a tie for the lead with burly Thai Kiradech Aphibarnrat on Saturday.
The Englishman, who has held the lead on his own or shared it throughout this week's $4.55 million tournament, produced a cool par save at the 18th hole to post a three-under-par 68 for a 12-under aggregate of 201.
The big-hitting Kiradech, known for his 'go for broke' style, picked up four birdies in a faultless 67 in his attempt to become the first player to win three European Tour events this season.
