Jake Knapp hanging on a lead with more than dozens of players in a mix in the cognition classic

Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. – Jake Knapp survived a wild Saturday on a floring classical and avoid an accident in a problematic couple-3 15. year, a pair of late birds for 3-man 68, and one-shot of 68 and one-shot lead enters the final round in the national circle.

Knapp, who opened the tournament with 59, began a third round with one shooting and stalked for three shots when he made turn. He opened a 12-foot bird at 16. and ended up with a chip and put birds on the closing opening of the PAR-5 to stay ahead.

“A little everywhere in place,” Knapp said, who was in 16-below 197.

He was held by Michael Kim – and almost two dozen others.

There were so many movements in this captured third round, at one point he had 10 players at least a lead. Some of them are canceled until 15. Playing 163 meters over the water framed stone wall.

Taylor Montgomery, who had six birds at the Front nine and that the first player who reached 15 below, had one shot when at 15. hazards pumped two techs in danger. The first was a line of driving that almost hit with an alligator in the water. The other from the drops rolled back into the rocks of the rock. Added to the four-time-Bogee 7.

“You let the mind on this game for one second, and it can bite you,” Montgomery said, who knocked with two birds in the next three rescue holes 68. He was three behind.

Jesper Svensson from Sweden, who deserved the PGA tourist card through a European tour, was tied to leadership when he caught too many bunker balls behind 15. green and sailed into the water. He made Triple Bogee and hit the water in the water 18. years. Tied to lead with four to play, he wounded six behind him.

The other victim was Kim, although he had a fortune on this side. Had a one-time lead from 15. year when his heavy wizard crashed high from rocks, hardly crashed to the right and headed for water When he liked silently in Muck.

Most golf balls have shown, so it removed the right shoe and sock and blew mud and about 25 feet green. Two put for his first Bogee from the tournament. It could be worse – and Messier.

“I didn’t wet as I thought,” he said, although his face had blatus stains.

Knapp was wrong on Front nine, especially with his iron playing and short games, but he placed a series of stretch, because so many others struggled.

This leaves the final circuit burdened with the possibilities on the exchange rate that has become firm, especially green, because the week goes under a lot of sun.

“It’s just a much lesser Pin Hunting. It’s a little more conservative goals and you have to be a little selected in the distance control and such things, because if you don’t want to be in a bunker or lead, you don’t want to be,” Knapp said.

Russell Henley and Ben Griffin each had 66, and Doug Ghim had 68 to finish a crazy day just two shots behind him. Montgomery and Rickie Fowler (68) were three behind, followed by a group another goal that included Joe Highsmith and Max McGreevy, who each signed for 64 before the leaders are even great.

Twenty-two players were within five water shots, a group involving Jordan Spieth (68) and Brian Campbell, Who got his first PGA tour last week in Mexico And shot 66.

Knapp had 15. Rating of 59 or lower on the PGA tour, but only five of these other players won the victory. The latest was Brandt Snedeker more than seven years ago. Knapp will also try to become the first wire winner on the wire in the history of the tournament.

For someone who led after each of the three rounds, it was a different experience thanks to Volume 59.

“It just felt weirdly after playing Thursday … to hit shots so well and that wasn’t perfect every time,” Knapp said. “I just had to manage my expectations and don’t just hide towards anything and just realize it’s a long week. There’s a lot of great players who can go stupidly low, so just gotta try to stick to my game plan.”

The connecting classic moved into different names over the years. PGA National can be a sufficient circus with so much water and just enough wind that no lead is unsure. It was so visible on Saturday.
