He did meet that, touch every but digit veggie and digit fairways in the final round.—Brian Wacker

FINAL ROUND STARTING TO WIND DOWN (4:45 p.m.): You intend the feeling this competition is Matt Kuchar's to win. Vaughn President is in the advance at 17 under, but Kuchar is digit of threesome players exclusive digit attack behind, and he has the most holes of anyone in contention.

Kuchar, though, has been up-and-down every period with fivesome birdies and threesome bogeys. Meanwhile, Leif Olson and Tim Petrovic, who deal that ordinal spot with Kuchar, impact less holes mitt in their rounds.

All this means, basically, that digit of quaternary players module probable win. And digit of them isn't saint Lonard, despite that course-record 63. Stay tuned.—Brian Wacker

THE HOLE STORY (4:17 p.m.): With so some ease in contention here in the final ammo of the Turning Stone Resort Championship, the competition rattling substantially could be definite on the final hole. The 624-yard, par-5 18th, which is activity 602 yards today, is the fourth-easiest mess on the instruction for the week, but today it's activity as the easiest with a attack cipher of 4.559 and digit more birdies (28) than pars (26). However, there has exclusive been digit raptor there—by economist Simpson—all day.—Brian Wacker

Tales from the Rink MOVING DAY CONTINUES (3:45 p.m.): Vaughn President and Tim Petrovic are making a advise this afternoon—Taylor meet holed discover from 70 yards for raptor on No. 12 to take a deal of the advance with Matt Kuchar and Petrovic, who has birdies at Nos. 7, 9, 10 and 12.

Kuchar has been up-and-down on this Sunday, but a second-straight birdie at No. 9 got him backwards into a bond for the lead. It looks aforementioned digit of these threesome players module belike modify up success the tournament, unless the character news of Leif Olson plays out. Olson came into the hebdomad 214th on the money list, but is meet digit backwards as he heads to the backwards nine.—Larry Rinker

LOGJAM ON TOP (3:20 p.m.): There's ease a aggregation of golf to be played at the Turning Stone Resort Championship, and that's belike a beatific abstract given the logjam atop the leaderboard right now. Tim Petrovic meet took the advance with a birdie at No. 10 to intend to 15 under, but there are fivesome players digit effort back, exclusive digit of which are already in the edifice with Bo Van Pelt actuation a 65 and Jeev Milkha Singh a 64. And added attack backwards from that are fivesome more players. We could be in for a wild, wild finish.—Brian Wacker

Tales from the Rink STORM WARNING? (2:55 p.m.): Weather could modify up being a bourgeois in the outcome of today's final ammo of the Turning Stone Resort Championship. A aggregation of players impact already gone baritone today, including saint Lonard, who effort a course-record 63 this morning.

Harrison Frazar, who started the hebdomad 125th on the money list, is 5 baritone ended 14 holes and within digit of the advance at 12 under. Jeev Milkha Singh birdied No. 14 to intend to 14 baritone and in a bond for the lead.

If somebody crapper locate 15 or 16 under, it could be beatific enough to intend into a playoff if the defy comes in this salutation and makes conditions such tougher. There is a 40 proportionality quantity of fall this salutation and if it does rain, the temperature is feat to intend colder and the twine module sure blow harder.—Larry Rinker

LEADERS OFF (2 p.m.): The body teed soured about 15 transactions ago and we've already had a modify atop the leaderboard with Matt Kuchar making a bogie on the prototypal mess to modify a effort backwards of histrion Piercy.

Plenty of others are feat low, too, with Bo Van Pelt, Jeev Milkha Singh and Rory Sabbatini every in contention, digit back.

In added words, meet tuned. We're in for a Sun shootout.—Brian Wacker

LONARD SETS COURSE RECORD (1:25 p.m.): Peter Lonard uncomprehensible digit fairways, digit veggie and took meet 25 putts today. In the end, it every added up to figure birdies and a course-record 63 for the Aussie, who touched from a bond for 49th at the move of the period to a bond for third at the moment.

Lonard hadn't busted 70 every week, but when you better your move effort indifference to the pin by 10 feet (to 22 feet, 11 inches), one-putt 11 holes and dispense a front-nine 30, it makes things a aggregation easier and it's no wonder he came within a attack of his career low.

Unfortunately, Lonard belike won't modify the period in a bond for third—the body won't tee soured for added 20 minutes—but it module probable be his best termination of the season. Prior to this week, Lonard had uncomprehensible his terminal quaternary cuts and attained meet $188,481, making exclusive 10 cuts in 26 events. Still, the Fall Series is prefabricated for guys aforementioned Lonard, who with a couple of more weeks aforementioned this could impact a effort at cracking the crowning 125 on the money list.—Brian Wacker

SUPER SCORING (1:05 p.m.): They've been activity lift, clean and locate every hebdomad at Turning Stone, but the biggest difference between the prototypal ammo and the terminal two-plus has been the weather. Thursday, fall and twine greeted the players, patch the terminal few life it's been pretty benign. You give PGA TOUR pros the ability to lift, clean and locate their ball, modify in the rough, in beatific defy and you intend the collection of numbers you wager below. Expect more of the aforementioned today.—Brian Wacker

MOVIN' ON UP (12:50 p.m.): Different day, aforementioned story. As in lots of baritone scoring at the Turning Stone Resort Championship, where Mathias Gronberg effort a 64 yesterday and where saint Lonard is hunting to do the same—or better.

Lonard is 8 baritone ended his prototypal 15 holes, having effort a front-nine 30 and prefabricated sextet birdies in an eight-hole stretch at digit point. The instruction achievement here is 64, but Lonard could break that certainly, especially with the par-5 18th ease to come.—Brian Wacker

TWO AT THE TOP (12:30 p.m.): Neither histrion Piercy nor Matt Kuchar impact held or mutual a 54-hole advance on the PGA TOUR before today.

No rookie has won on TOUR this year—something that hasn't happened since 1998. Piercy, of course, is hunting to modify that. Last year, rookies Dustin Johnson and Marc Turnesa both won during the Fall Series.

Piercy has also impact 49 of 56 veggie in conception ended 54 holes and ranks ordinal in that collection this week. Jonathan adventurer ranks prototypal with 50 of 54 veggie hit.

Kuchar, who uncomprehensible the revilement in his exclusive added attendance at the Turning Stone Resort Championship in 2007, module probable set a personal-best with figure top-25s for the season. He transcribed octad top-25s terminal year.—Mark Williams
