YOKOHAMA, Japan (AP) — Adam Scott and Justin Thomas moved into contention at the PGA Tour’s Baycurrent Classic in Japan on Saturday, one stroke off the lead after three rounds at the Yokohama Country Club.
Scott, looking for his first PGA Tour win in six years, shot a 6-under 65 which included two eagles and Thomas a 67. They were tied for fourth.
First-round leader Jacob Bridgeman (69) was in a tie for the third-round lead with Michael Brennan (65) and PGA Tour rookie Zach Bauchou (67) with 13-under 200 totals.
Nick Taylor of Abbotsford, B.C., shot a 1-over 72 to sit tied for 44th at 3 under. Taylor Pendrith of Richmond Hill, Ont., also shot 72 and is in a tie for 57th at 1 over.
The PGA Tour’s lone stop in Asia features its strongest field of the FedEx Cup Fall series, with 13 of the 24 players who competed in the Presidents Cup two weeks ago at Medinah in the Chicago suburbs.
“You got to be pleased with that and something like that tomorrow might be enough,” Scott said of his 65. “It’s not a bad spot to be a few back. Hopefully we’ll be in for a great day.”
