Kevin Na shoots 61 to take lead in Las Vegas tournament
Kevin Na matched his career-low Saturday with a 10-under 61 on a day of low scoring in Las Vegas to build a two-shot lead over Patrick Cantlay in the PGA Tour’s Shiners Hospitals for Children Open.
Na was pumping his fist after every putt at the TPC Summerlin, which yielded six scores of 63 or better.
Na, who lives in Las Vegas, set the tournament’s 54-hole record at 22-under 191.
Cantlay was staying with him until he failed to get up-and-down on the reachable par-4 15th and made bogey from the bunker on the par-3 17th. He closed with a 15-foot birdie putt for a 63.
Pat Perez had a 62 and was four shots behind. Sam Ryder (64) and Lucas Glover (66) were another shot back.
LPGA Tour: Jaye Marie Green opened with eight birdies in 10 holes and made two big putts late for a 7-under 64 that gave her a one-shot lead at 14-under 199 going into the final round at the Volunteers of America Classic at The Colony, Texas.
Cheyenne Knight, a rookie from Texas, birdied the last hole for a 67 to get into the last group.
European Tour: Jon Rahm shot an 8-under 63 to match the course record and take a five-shot lead at 17-under entering the final round of the Spanish Open in Madrid.
Rafa Cabrera Bello (70) and Samuel del Val (69) were tied for second place at 12-under.
