DUBAI — Just two shots separated Britons Justin Rose and Tommy Fleetwood after both players posted near-perfect third-round 65s on Saturday to set up a final-day shootout in the Race to Dubai. Rose continues to enjoy the edge, leading the DP World Tour Championship on 15 under par by one shot from South Africa's Dylan Frittelli and Spain's Jon Rahm. Fleetwood is just behind on 13 under with another South African Dean Burmester. A win by either Rose, second in the points standings before this tournament, or leader Fleetwood would guarantee either the Race to Dubai title and the $1.25 million bonus. Rose would also win by finishing second, assuming he is ahead of Fleetwood, and could still claim the end-of-season accolade by finishing as low as fifth if he finishes higher than his compatriot. Another superb round on Saturday included a chipped birdie at the par-three 13th and a 45-foot birdie at the 16th. Rose saved par on the last despite taking a penalty drop, pitching to seven feet and rolling in a testing right-to-left putt for par which kept him one clear of Frittelli, who had birdied four of the last five holes in a flawless 63. Rose withstood a stiff test of his nerve by Fleetwood who, after a poor first day, has fought back with successive 65s, including eight birdies in his last 11 holes on Saturday. Others took advantage of helpful conditions and 15 players are within five shots of the lead, including Sergio Garcia, who is 10 under par and could still win the Race to Dubai if he wins the tournament and his rivals falter. Overnight leader and defending champion Matthew Fitzpatrick shot a level-par 72 to drop back in the field. Cook leads by three as he chases first PGA win Rookie Austin Cook edged closer to his maiden PGA Tour title after firing a third-round four-under-par 66 for a three-stroke lead at the RSM Classic in Sea Island, Georgia, on Saturday. The 26-year-old collected his first bogey of the week but picked up five birdies at the Seaside course to reach 18-under 194, with former winner Chris Kirk (64) his closest challenger on 15-under. Brian Gay, who turned in a 69, is alone in third place another stroke back while J.J. Spaun had eight birdies in a round of 62 to leave him in fourth place at 13-under 199. Overnight leader Cook got off to a great start with birdies at the first two holes before making a clutch par at the third. Two more birdies, at the seventh and ninth, took him to the turn at 4-under but he stumbled at 14 with a three-putt bogey. Cook did not allow his first dropped stroke of the week to get to him, however, as he hit back right away with another birdie. Koepka romps home by nine shots in Tokyo US Open champion Brooks Koepka stormed to victory at the Japan Tour's Dunlop Phoenix Tournament on Sunday, finishing with an eagle flourish to retain the title by nine shots after a final round four-under-par 67. Koepka finished on 20-under 264 for the $1.8 million tournament at Phoenix Country Club in Miyazaki with compatriot Xander Schauffele (71), Thai Prayad Marksaeng (67) and South Korean Lee Sang-hee (72) well beaten in a share of second. Hideki Matsuyama looked like he might be launching a Sunday charge when he fired a hole-in-one at the par-three third hole but a double-bogey just after the turn effectively ended his chances of a second Dunlop Phoenix title after his 2014 win. Japan's world No. 4 revived his round with three birdies on the back nine but another bogey at the 17th saw him drop out of a share of second and he finished fifth on 10-under after a 69. Koepka made a sizzling start. Birdies on his first two holes and another at the par-five seventh took the 27-year-old well clear of the field at the turn, and bogeys at the 10th and 17th were offset by a shot picked up at the 13th and his eagle-three on the 18th. — Reuters
