BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) Jeff Maggert birdied the final two holes in heavy rain for a 4-under 68 and sole possession of the lead Saturday after the third round of the Champions Tour's Regions Tradition.
Maggert moved to 14 under with the strong finish after entering the day tied for the top spot with Kevin Sutherland at Shoal Creek. Sutherland was a stroke back. His birdie attempt on No. 18 missed by a couple of inches to set up a tap-in for a 69.
Sutherland was alone at the top until a bogey on No. 16 brought him even with Maggert, who had a bogey-free round. Both birdied No. 17
Fred Funk was third at 18 under afer a 67. He won the tournament in 2008 and 2010.
