Na fires 61 to take 2-shot PGA lead in Las Vegas
Kevin Na equalled his career-low round with a 10-under par 61 to take a two-stroke lead over fellow American Patrick Cantlay in the PGA Tour Shriners Hospitals For Children Open.
On a day when plenty of players were going low on TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas, Na produced another strong performance on the greens in following up his second-round 62.
His 22-under total of 191 was a 54-hole record for the tournament, a home fixture for the South Korean-born American who won the first of his three PGA Tour titles in this event in 2011.
"I feel comfortable, I feel confident," said Na, who had 10 birdies without a bogey.
Cantlay, who won at TPC Summerlin in 2017 and finished second last year, kept the pressure on with eight birdies in his first 16 holes.
He faltered at the par-three 17th, where he was unable to get up and down from a greenside bunker, but closed with a birdie at 18 to cap a 63 for 193.
It was a further two strokes back to American Pat Perez, who had an eagle and seven birdies ..
