Steve Stricker eyes three in a row
The American followed rounds of 66 and 64 with a bogey-free 63 to reach 20-under par with the kind of golf that could bring him a third consecutive win in the Silvas, Illinois event. "I feel pretty relaxed out there to tell you the truth, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow," Stricker said. "But it's going to be tough."
Stricker, ranked five in the world, began the day by draining a superb 75-foot birdie putt on the first and ended with a 15-foot par save on the 18th to make sure he maintained his two stroke cushion over Zimbabwean Brendon de Jonge, who also shot 63 on Saturday.
