"We're very good friends," said Clarke. "I would certainly like to be four or five shots ahead of him as I could have been as opposed to tied for the lead, but we'll have some fun."

 

Bjorn, who won this year's Irish Open, recorded pars on his next four holes, then ran home an eight-foot birdie putt at the closing hole to get in at minus-11.

 

Now Bjorn has a shot to win at the same venue as his first win on the European Tour.

 

Dearborn, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Loren Roberts will be seeking his fourth win of the season Sunday, and his second major title in 11 months. After winning three straight full-field events to begin his first full season on the Champions Tour, Roberts will carry a two-shot lead into the final round of the Senior Players Championship after shooting an eight-under 64 in the third round on Saturday.

 

Roberts began the third round in a tie for 15th place after the second round -- suspended due to inclement weather on Friday -- was completed in the morning.

 

No one believed Roberts' early-season success was a fluke. Beginning part-time on the Champions Tour last summer, Roberts won the JELD-WEN Tradition in a playoff over Dana Quigley for his first Seniors major.

 

He made a run at the U.S. Senior Open last week with a record-setting 62 in the third round, then shot 73 on Sunday to finish tied for eighth.

 

Saturday, Roberts began making a move with back-to-back birdies to begin his third round. He added birdies at the fifth and seventh holes to make the turn at 10-under, then collected another birdie at the 10th.

 

Don Pooley -- one of eight players who held a share of the second-round lead -- now heads a group of four players who are tied for fifth place. Pooley shot a two-under 70 in the third round and is tied with Bobby Wadkins (65), Des Smyth (68) and Jim Thorpe (69) at minus-10.

 

Joe Ozaki tied a Champions Tour record with eight consecutive birdies on Friday, then tallied a double-bogey and a birdie Saturday morning to hold a share of the second-round lead.

 

Raleigh, NC (PRWEB) July 16, 2006 -- CARQUEST Auto Parts and Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Rookie, Kim Hall, are excited to announce their partnership. Hall, 24, a native of San Antonio, Texas, grew up hearing the name CARQUEST Auto Parts. Her father, Robert Rowton, has worked for CARQUEST Auto Parts in San Antonio, Texas for 26 years. In December 2005, Hall earned her LPGA Tour card, and it only seemed appropriate for CARQUEST to sponsor Hall on the elite and globally successful LPGA Tour.
