Keith Mitchell finished with a pair of birdies Saturday for a 7-under 65 and a one-shot lead going into the final round of the Sanderson Farms Championship.

On one of The Country Club of Jackson’s tee boxes, Mitchell asked a fan if he was looking at college football scores. After the fan said yes, Mitchell immediately asked for an update on the Georgia game (plus a check-in with Alabama). But @K_M_Mitchell is making sure he doesn't miss the college football action. pic.twitter.com/iuLCvGQFiD

Mitchell, a 32-year-old Chattanooga native and former Baylor School and University of Georgia standout, was seeking a second PGA Tour victory to go with his triumph at the Honda Classic in March 2019. He still got his best result on tour since tying for third at the CJ Cup at Summit in October 2021.
