Bernhard Langer beats age by two to take TimberTech lead into the final round

BOCA RATON, Fla. — The ageless Bernhard Langer beat his age by two shots Saturday with a 9-under 63, giving him a one-shot lead over Paul Goydos in the TimberTech Championship and a chance to move closer to the PGA Tour Champions record for career wins.

Langer opened with three straight birdies, came one turn away from another, and then holed a bunker shot on the par-3 fifth at Royal Palm Yacht and Country Club.

It was clear early on this might be a special day.

“I was thinking, ‘Well, this may be another day when you shoot your age,’” Langer said.
