That might change today. The 33-year-old Clark shot a 4-under-par 66 Saturday in the third round of the Crowne Plaza Invitational to take a two-stroke lead into the final round at Colonial Country Club. Clark, playing in his 184th Tour event, was at 17-under 193 for 54 holes. “It’s tough to win out here everyone knows it,” said Clark, who has finished second in six tournaments. Steve Marino (62), Jason Day (65) and Steve Stricker (69) are tied for second. Clark’s other 54-hole lead was at the 2008 St. Jude Classic. He opened that final round with a triple bogey, shot 6 over and finished tied for 18th.
“It’s never easy being the front-runner. It’s a little bit tougher than coming from a few shots back,” Clark said.
