Baddeley shoots 66 to take Puerto Rico Open lead
RIO GRANDE, Puerto Rico – Aaron Baddeley shot a 6-under 66 on Saturday at windy Coco Beach Golf and Country Club to take the third-round lead in the Puerto Rico Open.
Baddeley had a 12-under 204 total for a one-stroke lead over Nate Lashley in the event that was canceled last year because of Hurricane Maria.
''I hit a lot of greens today,'' Baddeley said. ''I just feel like it was a pretty low stress today. I hit the ball close a few times, I had some short birdie putts, so just doing a few things like that made it pretty comfortable.''
The 37-year-old Australian won the 2016 Barbasol Championship for the last of his four PGA Tour titles.
