"That was fun... An amazing day. Just tried my hardest to get myself back into the tournament. I'm really happy that I've been able to do that. I didn't even think there was a 59".
Matt Wallace about his performance through ESPN.

The Englishman has now tied the record of nine consecutive birdies with James Nitties, who also did the same during the 2019 Vic Open. As the final concludes on Sunday, Wallace is in prime position to claim his fifth European title.

However, he knows the chasing pack will not give up so easily. One of his main rivals Hovland has been in stunning form this season. The Norwegian would be hoping to become the golfer to claim both the DP World Tour Championship and the PGA Tour Championship in the same season.
