ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. (AP) PGA Tour rookie Austin Cook shot a 4-under 66 on Saturday to increase his lead to three strokes in the RSM Classic.

Cook, a shot ahead after a second-round 62, had five birdies and a bogey - his first of the week - to reach 18-under 194 with a round left at Sea Island Golf Club's Seaside Course.

Chris Kirk was second after a 64.

Brian Gay was another stroke back at 14 under after a 69.

J.J. Spaun had a 62 to get to 13 under.
