Costa Rica's Gagne may be saving his best for last at LAAC

LA ROMANA, Dominican Republic — It's starting to feel like Luis Gagne was just biding his time.

One of the pre-tournament favorites, the senior from LSU opened with rounds of 72-70, but finally made his move on Saturday with a bogey-free, 4-under 68 in the third round of the Latin America Amateur Championship. He'll enter Sunday at Casa de Campo just two shots off of the lead held by Mexico's Alvaro Ortiz.

"Tomorrow is definitely going to be a long, long day," Gagne said, "and it's probably going to be stressful for most people."

Gagne is probably the best prepared to handle that stress.
