Maggert, Montgomerie enter SAS event tied for points lead (The Associated Press)

CARY, N.C. (AP) -- One of the threesomes at the SAS Championship sure looks like it belongs in the final round.

Jeff Maggert will be playing with Colin Montgomerie and Bernhard Langer during the opening round of the Champions Tour event that begins Friday.

Maggert and Montgomerie are tied for the season-long competition for the Charles Schwab Cup. It's the first time players have been tied in the race for the cup and its $1 million payout.

Defending cup champion Langer is 388 points behind, and 315 points are up for grabs this weekend at Prestonwood Country Club.
