Associated Press With $12.7 million in career earnings on the PGA Tour, Tim Clark has the dubious distinction of winning the most money without
winning an event. Now he’s got a great chance to let someone else carry that burden. Clark shot a 4-under-par 66 on Saturday in the third round of the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas, to take a two-stroke lead into the final round. Clark moved ahead of playing partner Steve Stricker with a birdie on the 11th hole, then strung together pars until No. 18. The South African was at 17-under-193 as he chased his first PGA Tour victory after 183 starts. He has finished second six times, including last year at Colonial when Phil Mickelson birdied the final hole for a one-stroke win. Stricker (69), Steve Marino (62) and Jason Day (65) were 15 under, Vijay Singh (69) followed at 13 under, and Justin Leonard (64) and Woody Austin (67) were 12 under.
Jason Day has had three straight rounds of 65, and Steve Marino shot a tournament-best 62 on Saturday, moving them into a tie for second place at 15-under with Steve Stricker (69).
