MICHIGAN - Aldrich Potgieter was the second-youngest golfer to win The Amateur Championship at 17 and the youngest winner in Korn Ferry Tour history at 19. Now, he is on the verge of his first PGA Tour victory at the ripe old age of 20.
Reeling off five birdies in a row, he broke away from the pack and grabbed a two-stroke lead after the third round of the Rocket Classic on June 28 at Detroit Golf Club. The South African posted a seven-under 65, tied for the best round of the day, to get to 19-under 197. Five Americans are lurking at 17 under - Jake Knapp (66), Max Greyserman (66), Mark Hubbard (67), Andrew Putnam (69) and Chris Kirk (69).
