AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Lee Westwood has birdied two of the first four holes in the third round of the Masters, pushing his score to 10-under par for a three-stroke lead.

Tiger Woods started with birdies at the first and third holes, climbing with a shot of the top spot. But he failed to get up-and-down from a bunker at the par-3 fourth, and took another bogey with a three-putt at the sixth.

Westwood rolled in a 25-foot birdie on No. 1, and set up his second birdie with a brilliant tee shot at the fourth. He’s three shots ahead of Phil Mickelson and second-round co-leader Ian Poulter, with Woods and Fred Couples another stroke back.
