LAST UPDATE | 5 Nov 2022

SEAMUS POWER RETAINS a slim hope of achieving back-to-back PGA Tour wins, his efforts boosted by a hole-in-one at the World Wide Technology Championship at Mayakoba on Saturday.

The Waterford native started his third round nine shots behind leader Russell Henley, but finished it two shots closer. Power birdied at the first and seventh before exploding into life with an ace at the eighth.

Power hit a gap wedge into the 151-yard par three to move to four-under par for the day, and 11-under for the tournament.

And his surge up the leaderboard got even better with an eagle two at the par-four 11th before further birdies at the 14th and 17th.

His eight-under par round of 63 moves him onto 15-under par and fourth place, seven shots behind Henley (22 under).
