CHRYSLER CLASSIC OF TUCSON Baddeley, Slocum share top spot

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -- Aaron Baddeley shot his way into a share of the third-round lead at the Chrysler Classic of Tucson with an 8-under 64 Saturday.
He and Heath Slocum took different routes to reach 15-under 201.
Baddeley, who began the round six strokes behind, carded eight birdies and no bogeys on a cool, gusty day. Slocum bogeyed the last hole and turned in a 70 the day after his 64 earned him a one-shot lead heading into the third round.
Mike Heinen had a 65 to stay within a shot. Carlos Franco, who shot 68, and Mark Hensby (69) made were also tied at 202.
Bill Glasson (71), who had to complete eight holes of the rain-delayed second round before starting the third, chipped in for birdie on the last hole to join Vaughn Taylor (69) and Per-Ulrik Johansson (69) two shots off the pace.
Defending champion Frank Lickliter shot a 72 and is in a tie with 13 others at 8-under 208.
Johansson finished with a double-bogey -- and cost himself a share of the lead -- for the second straight round.
This time, he boomed a 314-yard drive on No. 18 that found a water hazard. After a drop onto tricky footing in a wet area, Johansson's approach shot landed on the green, but he three-putted.
Baddeley had three top-10 finishes last year as a rookie, including a playoff loss to Ernie Els at the Sony Open. But this season his best finish in five events has been a tie for 15th in Hawaii, and he has missed two cuts -- something he only did five times in 20 tournaments in 2003.
He was on early, with birdies on five of the first 10 holes.
The 22-year-old heart-throb drew cheers on the par-3 12th hole, where he had just enough backspin on his tee shot to get the ball to roll 8 feet downhill toward the cup.
He got another hand after sinking a 12-foot birdie putt which moved him to 13 under, and added birdies on the 13th and 15th holes before finishing with pars.
Early leaders
The leader-board was crowded early.
Hensby and Johansson got an eagle on the second hole, Johansson with a 54-foot putt.
Hensby moved into a tie for the lead at 13 under with his 15-footer and took a solo lead when Slocum, playing one group behind, made his first bogey of the tournament on No. 2.
Slocum's second shot stopped in the rough to the right of the green on the 495-yard par-5, his chip was short and he three-putted from 100 feet. It was a preview of his bad luck on the 18th green, when he misread the undulating greens and three-putted from 49 feet.
Divots
Slocum hit 35 of 37 greens in regulation before his drive on No. 2. ... The cut after the rain-delayed second round was at 4-under 140, the lowest of the PGA Tour season. ... John Daly, gunning for his career-best third straight top 10, shot 76 to wind up tied for 71st at 216. Daly went 7 over on No. 4, a 170-yard par-3 when backspin carried four consecutive shots into the water hazard in front. He finally holed a 13-foot putt with his 10th shot.
