Nate Lashley continues to hold the top spot on the leaderboard after the third round of the Rocket Mortgage Classic.
The longtime pro is now just one day away from his first PGA Tour win as he holds a six-shot lead going into Sunday's final round.
While there's no comfortable lead in golf, Lashley has a big cushion over the rest of the field. He became the first player to post 23 under through 54 holes of a Tour event since Jason Dufner in 2016 at the Desert Classic.
Lashley matched his best round of the week (9-under 63) to get to the record-tying mark.

The rest of the golfers are sitting a lot closer as they will now seemingly play for a runner-up finish.
J.T. Poston moved into second place (17 under), Cameron Tringale holds third (16 under) and Patrick Reed used his putter to jump into fourth (15 under).
Reed matched Lashley's nine birdies but Reed's scorecard was stained with two bogeys on the front nine. He matched Tringale's third-round score of 7-under 65.
There's a four-way tie for fifth place (14 under) while Hideki Matsuyama and Charles Howell III are included in the sizable tie for ninth place (13 under).
