NAPLES, Fla. (AP) — Bernhard Langer shot a 6-under 66 on Saturday and leads the ACE Group Classic by four strokes heading into the final round.
Langer matched the tournament’s 36-hole record at 14-under 130. Mark O’Meara, Russ Cochran, Fred Funk and Mark Calcavecchia are tied for second.
Langer birdied his first three holes on his way to a 31 on the front nine. He bogeyed Nos. 10 and 11, but bounced back with three more birdies.
Funk and Calcavecchia will join Langer in the final group; the last 11 champions in tournament history have come out of the final pairing.
