LAS VEGAS (AP) — Defending champion Tom Kim felt the vibes and found his groove Saturday in Las Vegas with a 9-under 62 that gave him a three-way share of the lead in the Shriners Children's Open and a chance to win the same tournament twice in one s
It was the second straight year Kim had a 62 in the third round at the TPC Summerlin. It led to a playoff victory over Patrick Cantlay last year in what was the early part of the season. Now it's technically the same season before the PGA Tour goes back to a calendar year.
This was hardly a three-man race going into the final round. K.H. Lee was among three players on shot back. It all, 14 players were within three shots of the lead. That includes J.T. Poston and Canadian Open champion Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, small consolation to both of them. Other Canadians in the hunt include Taylor Pendrith of Thornhill, Ont., who is one shot back of the leaders and Surrey's Adam Svensson, who is two back.
" … Just to be able to come back — especially now near the leaderboard — at least I have a chance on Sunday."
