Cameron Smith is still in the hunt for his first win in over two-and-a-half years but will need a last-round surge to cut down British pacesetter Tyrrell Hatton in the LIV Golf Andalucia event at Valderrama.
Ryder Cup player Hatton maintained his two-shot lead through three rounds after shooting a four-under-par 67 on Saturday, while Australia's former British Open champ lies five shots adrift in joint-fourth place going into the final round.
"I think it's going to be really windy tomorrow, it's going to be a grinder's type of day out there," said Smith, after his two-under 69 left him at five under for the tournament, having lost a couple more strokes to the in-form Hatton.
"Tomorrow, I feel like I'm in a position where I can give it a good shot. I just need to kind of hang in there, given the conditions we're likely to get."
