LAKE ORION, Mich. - Bernhard Langer surged into the lead at the U.S. Senior Open on Saturday.
Langer shot a 6-under 64 to move to 10 under for the tournament, putting him ahead by 4 strokes.
The two-time Masters champion opened with three straight birdies and eight in 12 holes. The 54-year-old Langer had a double bogey at 13 and a bogey at 18 to give the field a glimmer of hope Sunday.
Tom Lehman and Corey Pavin were in a five-way tie for second at 6-under 204.
Fred Couples moved up the leader board with a 65. He was part of a pack, along with Fred Funk and Jay Haas, that was 5 shots back at the Champion Tour's fourth of five majors.
SILVIS, Ill. - Troy Matteson shot a 5-under 66 to take a 3-shot lead into the final round at the PGA John Deere Classic.
Steve Stricker, who also shot a 66, sits in second place at 15 under in his quest for a fourth straight tournament title. Stricker birdied four straight holes beginning at the 14th, but bogeyed the par-4 18th, stubbing a chip shot and missing a 15-footer for par.
Both Matteson and Stricker bogeyed the last hole, setting up their final-round pairing together at TPC Deere Run, where Stricker, a Wisconsin native who was an all-American at Illinois, has become a local favorite by winning the last three years.
INVERNESS, Scotland - Francesco Molinari held off a barrage of challengers at the Scottish Open, shooting a 5-under 67 to take 1-stroke lead into the final round.
