It's Rickie by four, with DeLaet T8 at the Honda Classic

PGA Tour Honda Classic leaderboard http://www.pgatour.com/competition/2017/the-honda-classic/leaderboard.html

So far this week, Rickie Fowler is the class of the field with rounds of 66 66 65 -13 197 he is 4 shots clear heading into today's final round of the Honda Classic in ideal conditions in south Florida.

Fowler hasn’t won since Abu Dhabi a year ago in January on the European Tour and his last PGA Tour victory was in September 2015 at the Deutsche Bank Championship. One of the keys to his success this week is that he is -5 over the final four holes at PGA National.

While Rickie is living at home and knows the course intimately England's Tyrrell Hatton, in his first PGA Tour event in Florida, came into the week with no expectations having seen PGA National for the 1st time on Monday. He has shot 68 67 66 -9 to make it into the final pairing today.

He and Fowler were paired together in the Open Championship at Royal Troon last year where Henrik Stenson edged Phil Mickelson in one of golf's all time great matches.

Canadian scores:  With 4 birdies, but 4 bogey's on the back nine, Graham DeLaet lost ground with E 70 leaving him T8 at -6, seven shots behind Fowler.

David Hearn is T28 -4 69 71 67. while Mackenzie Hughes is +3 through 12 holes this morning and well back T64 at +5
