KAPALUA, Hawaii (AP) — The back nine at Kapalua is where the Sentry Tournament of Champions comes to life. That’s where Collin Morikawa might have ended it on Saturday. Morikawa ran off four birdies over his last five holes for a 65. That gives him a six-shot lead going into the final round at Kapalua. No one has lost a final-round lead that large since the tournament moved to Maui in 1999. Masters champion Scottie Scheffler, U.S. Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick and J.J. Spaun were six shots behind. It looks hopeless. Morikawa is smooth with putter and always great with the irons.
