- Houston Open
Kuchar holds four-shot lead into final round
Matt Kuchar overcame windy conditions to match the low round of the day and take a four-shot lead after three rounds of the Houston Open.
The six-time PGA Tour winner had three straight birdies on the back nine at the Golf Club of Houston on Saturday to vault past second-round leader Sergio Garcia with a four-under-par 68 - leaving him at 15-under overall heading into the final round.
Kuchar's last win came at the Memorial last year. He enters Sunday's final round four shots ahead Cameron Tringale and Garcia.
Tringale shot a three-under 69 in the third round, while Garcia struggled his way to a one-over 73.
Phil Mickelson shot an even-par 72 and is six-under for the tournament overall.
Luke Donald and Lee Westwood are the highest-placed Brits after both carded one-under 71s. Both remain 12 shots off Kuchar's lead at three-under-par. Rory McIlroy ended the day with a two-over 74 and is well out of contention ahead of the final round, sitting tied for 37th on one-under-par.
