Englands Tyrrell Hatton hailed the best round of his career after equalling the course record at St. Andrews to take control of the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship.Hatton carded 10 birdies in a flawless 62 on the Old Course and will take a three-shot lead over compatriot Ross Fisher into Sundays final round at the same venue, one of three used for the pro-am event.The world No.53 raced to the turn in 30 and picked up further shots on the 10th, 14th, 17th and 18th to finish 17 under par in pursuit of his first European Tour title.(Its) quite clearly the best round Ive ever had. Ive never got to double digits before either so Im really pleased with that, said the 24-year-old, who was fifth in the Open at Royal Troon and 10th in the US PGA Championship at Baltusrol.I think my bad shots, I didnt really get punished for them. I missed them in good spots and I just putted really well. If you are holing putts, youre always going to shoot a decent score.I think the putt on 17 was probably the best putt I holed today, 25 feet. But the majority of them were around six to 15 feet and if you keep knocking them in, its certainly good for confidence.Obviously Id love to get a win and Ill try my best tomorrow. Its been a really consistent year and hopefully I can have a good finish to the year as well.I went out to the States [after the US PGA] because I was close to getting a PGA Tour card, but that didnt work out and Im happy to be playing back in Europe.Halfway leader Fisher, who lost a playoff for the Porsche European Open a fortnight ago, carded a 69 at Carnoustie to finish 14 under, with South Africas Richard Sterne and Swedens Joakim Lagergren a shot further back.You never know what youre going to get when you turn up here, Fisher said. We were all hoping for Car-nicety and not Car-nasty. We got it. It was a beautiful day to play this place.It was still tricky out there. It was very firm, very fiery, but overall I felt pretty pleased with the round. There were a couple of scrappy shots. Maybe left a couple of putts out there but all in all I cant complain. To shoot in the 60s for the third day running, Im obviously very, very pleased.Hopefully Ill be drawn with Tyrrell [on Sunday], because were pretty good friends. Weve spent quite a few evenings together for dinner and stuff.Im sure well go out there and have some fun and put on some good golf for the public and you know, whether its me, him, someone else, theres going to be a worthy winner come tomorrow afternoon.Former world No.1 Martin Kaymer is five shots off the lead after a 65 on the Old Course, but was more concerned with making the cut in the team event with his father Horst.I was quite a few shots behind, so the main goal was to make the cut with my father today, Kaymer said. I know how hard hes trying and we played the last few years and we always came one shot short.He never experienced the final round at St. Andrews, so I think the most important thing is that we have a good time out there as a family.

The author noticed Grahams name while thumbing through the Baaseball Encyclopedia he had received as a Christmas gift from his father-in-law.ddddddddddddI found this entry for Moonlight Graham. How could anyone come up with that nickname? He played one game but did not get to bat. I was intrigued, and I made a note that I intended to write something about him, Kinsella told The Associated Press in 2005 on the 100th anniversary of the only game Graham played in the majors.Much of Kinsellas work touched on baseball. He published almost 30 books of fiction, non-fiction and poetry and won the Order of Canada, one of the countrys highest honors.William Patrick Kinsella was born in Edmonton, Alberta.

In 1978 he earned a master of fine arts in English through the Iowa Writers Workshop at the University of Iowa.He had been an English professor at the University of Calgary.Vancouver Writers Festival founder Alma Lee said Kinsella was a private man with a passion for baseball.He was a dedicated story-teller, performer, curmudgeon, an irascible and difficult man, Swayze said in a statement. His fiction has made people laugh, cry, and think for decades and will do so for decades to come.Kinsella was married three times. He is survived by two daughters, who the literary agency says cared for him in his final years, and several grandchildren.Kinsella has asked there be no memorial service.----Gillies reported from Toronto.
