New Zealand golfer Michael Campbell is poised just off the pack in the US Open at Pinehurst, North Carolina.
Campbell shot a one over 71 to finish the third round tied for fourth place, with Australia's Mark Hensby.
Defending champion South African Retief Goosen has a three-shot lead over relative unknown Jason
Gore and US PGA Tour journeyman Olin Browne.
Goosen leads Campbell by four shots, one under par.
Campbell had three birdies, including chipping in from a bunker on the 17th, and four bogeys.
He's two shots ahead of Tiger Woods ? in a tie for seventh ? with world No 1 Vijay Singh further back.
Goosen is poised to lift his third US Open championship after a stunning third-round comeback here on Saturday.
He shot a one-under 69, only the second sub-par round of the day, to go into Sunday's final round with a three-shot lead over Gore and Browne.
Behind Campbell and Hensby are David Toms, Tiger Woods, Lee Westwood, KJ Choi and Peter Hedblom.
The 36-year-old Goosen, who began the day sharing the lead with Americans Gore and Browne, looked to be letting it all slip away when he went bogey-double bogey on the long march home.
It took him back to level par and out of the lead.
But in true championship style, he hit back with back-to-back birdies to return to two-under par.
Then a dramatic birdie putt from off the 18th green took him to three-under and a vital cushion on a brutal course where birdies are hard to come by.
Goosen has led or co-led after the third round in his two previous US Open victories and few will bet against him taking his third US Open title in five years.
It was an equally gutsy performance from Gore.
The 31-year-old Californian is unable to make a living from the PGA Tour but he refused to wilt when he was put under the spotlight here to finish level par for the championship and with reach of Goosen.
Browne gave an equally impressive performance as he too refused to go away.
The much-heralded playing duo of Vijay Singh and Sergo Garcia failed to keep it together on Pinehurst No 2, the Spaniard finishing the day five-over for the championship and eight shots back ? a near impossible mountain to climb on this course.
Singh is seven back and needing a total collapse by Goosen to have any chance.
Veteran Peter Jacobsen, only playing here because of his victory in the US Senior Open, scored a hole-in-one when his ball took once bounce on the green of the 160m ninth and dropped in the hole.
It allowed Jacobsen to card the only other sub-par round on Saturday.
