Tougher course, same old party for players in Phoenix

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. – When Tom Weiskopf toughened up TPC Scottsdale two years ago, he hoped players would never reach 20 under again.

It looks like he will get his wish for another year.

Danny Lee stayed calm and collected while surrounded by a record-setting crowd of more than 200,000 people Saturday to post a 4-under 67 for a three-shot lead over Rickie Fowler (1-under 70) and Hideki Matsuyama (3-under 68) heading into the final round.

Lee’s at 13 under par, so rest easy Phil Mickelson and Mark Calcavecchia, your record total of 28 under par is safe .
