Hie Fires 67 to Lead Indonesian PGA


22yr old Rory Hie continued his great play from yesterday, firing a 3rd round 5-under par 67 to storm his way into the lead at the US$1million Indonesian PGA Championship. Hie reeled off 7 birdies for the day at Imperial Klub Golf, courtesy of a solid ball-striking display and some brilliant putting. Hie began the day 3 shots off the lead but soon overcame the deficit with birdies on 5 of the first 6 holes. Hie is now 13-under for the tournament and will take a one shot lead going into Sunday's final round. Overnight tournament leader Matthew Millar is one shot behind, Andre Stolz and Park Eun Shin a further shot back in a tie for 3rd.

It's been less than 3 weeks since we started working on Rory's swing changes, so he's doing a fantastic job to make it all work so well under the pressure of tournament play. The weight of an entire nation will be on this talented young Indonesian's shoulders tomorrow as he attempts to record what could possibly be Indonesian golf's greatest achievement to date.

The Academy wishes Rory all the very best for the final round!
