PUNTA CANA, Dominican Republic (AP) — Wesley Bryan finished a wild round of birdies and bogeys with one last birdie Saturday to break a tie with a 2-under 70, giving him a one-shot lead over Kevin Tway going into the last round of the suddenly wide-open Corales Puntacana Championship.
Bryan opened the tournament with a 63 and has a chance to become only the second player to go wire-to-wire on the PGA Tour this year. It just didn’t feel that way.
Bryan lost the lead on the third hole with a two-shot swing — Bryan made bogey, Justin Lower made birdie — and fell two shots behind at one point until three birdies over a four-hole stretch around the turn on the Corales course to regain the lead at wind-swept Puntacana Resort.
By the end of the round, Bryan had only six pars to go along with seven birdies and five bogeys. The last birdie put him at 17-under 199, tying the 54-hole tournament record.
