IRVING, Texas -- Sergio Garcia took the lead from Tiger Woods on Saturday in the Byron Nelson Championship, using awesome control from tee to green for a 5-under 65 and a two-shot margin.
Garcia, winless on the PGA Tour in two years while retooling his swing, had a birdie putt on every hole on the TPC at Las Colinas and has hit the last 23 greens in regulation. He was particularly strong on the par 3s, making birdie on three of them to finish at 11-under 199.
Jerry Kelly had a bogey-free 67 and was at 201.
For the second week in a row, Woods let a 36-hole lead slip away quickly. He lost the lead with a three-putt bogey on the second hole, and had to play hard -- usually from the rough -- to stay in range. Woods went the final seven holes without a birdie and shot an even-par 70, leaving him three shots behind.
Joining him at 8-under 202 was Deanne Pappas of South Africa, who had a 66. Vijay Singh, among eight players who had a share of the lead at one point, played the final 10 holes in 2 over and settled for a 68, leaving him in a large group at 203 that included Mark O'Meara (70) and Luke Donald (64).
Franklin American Mortgage
FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Mexico's Lorena Ochoa shot a 5-under 67 to take a one-stroke lead through three rounds of the inaugural Franklin American Mortgage Championship.
Ochoa shared a one-stroke lead with Pat Hurst heading into Saturday, and took a big step toward her first victory with a seven-birdie, two-bogey round.
The 2003 rookie of the year who has 13 top-10 finishes in her short career, is at 12-under 204. Mi Hyun Kim tied the course record with an 8-under 64 to move into second at 11 under.
Asian Open
SHANGHAI, China -- England's Simon Dyson matched his course record with a 6-under 66 to push his Asian Open lead to six shots, and Greg Norman was disqualified for the second time this year.
Norman sent his tee shot into the water on the 17th hole in the third round. The Australian then hit a ball from beside the water when he should have either returned to the tee or gone to the drop zone 60-70 yards behind him as required by the rules.
In March, Norman disqualified himself at the Honda Classic in Florida after incorrectly playing a tee shot on the 13th hole.
Dyson had a 15-under 201 total.
