Spies leads the third round alone… It looks like a championship after 3 years
–
Jordan Spies (USA) was also leading the third round of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am ($7.8 million in total prize money) of the American Professional Golf (PGA) Tour, approaching the victory in three years and seven months.
In the third round of the tournament held at Pebble Beach Golf Links (par 72, 7,51 yards), California, USA on the 14th (Korean time), Spies combined 1 Eagle, 3 Birdies and 4 Bogies to hit 1 under par 71.
Spice, who recorded 203 strokes at 13 under par in the middle total, is leading the solo lead, beating the tie for 2nd place 5 players by 2 strokes.
Spies is looking to win in three years and seven months after winning 11 in his career at the Open (British Open) in July 2017.
In addition, four years after defeating AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February 2017, the championship cup will be raised again.
Spice, who had won 3 wins in 2017, fell into extreme sluggishness afterwards, and the world ranking fell from 1st to 92nd lowest.
Last week, however, it was tied for fourth at the Phoenix Open, sparking a revival, and raising the world ranking to 62nd.

Spice, who started the third round as a solo leader, wrote a few examples on hole 2 (par 5), but later caught a birdie in holes 4 (par 4), 6 holes (par 5), and 9 holes (par 4) to make up for it. .
In particular, in the 6th hole, the tee shot was put on the card road and the second shot was thrown into the bunker next to the green and recorded a birdie.
In particular, the bunker shot was almost connected by a shot eagle, but the ball slightly passed through the hole.
In the second half, it shook with only 3 bogeys at the 10th hole (par 4), 12th hole (par 3), and 14th hole (par 5), and went down from the leading position.
However, Spice succeeded in a shot eagle with his second shot on the 16th hole (par 4), making a reversal as he came back to the lead.
At this time, Daniel Burger (USA), who caught up as a joint leader, was shaken at the last minute.
Burger, who started in second place in the first stroke, continued to play stable with a par save after recording a birdie on hole 4 (par 4), Bogie on hole 7 (par 3), and hole 11 (par 4).
However, as the tee shot on the 18th hole (par 5) became out of bounds (OB), he was penalized and eventually finished with a double bogie, recording an even par.
Burger, Nate Lashley (US), Tom Hogi (US), Russell Knox (Scotland), and Patrick Cantley (US) are tied for second with a middle total of 11 under par 205.
Kang Seong-hoon, 34, the only Korean player to pass the cut, caught one birdie, but poured out five bogies, hitting a 4 over par 76, and a tie for 59th with a median total of 1 over par 217.
This competition is held in a way that professional players and amateur celebrities play together, but this year only professional athletes participated to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19).
Rounds 1 and 2 were held separately at Pebble Beach Golf Links and Spyglass Hill Golf Course (par 72, 7,41 yards), and from Round 3, only Pebble Beach Golf Links.
