AFP, Miami :
Grayson Murray fired a seven-under-par 65 to grab a share of the lead at the US PGA Tour’s Puerto Rico Open on Saturday.
The 27-year-old from North Carolina bounced back from a bogey on the 17th to finish with a birdie on the last to join local hope Rafael Campos at the top of the leaderboard on 14 under heading into Sunday’s final round.
Murray’s closing birdie capped a sparkling round which erupted early on with four birdies and three pars in his first seven holes at the Grand Reserve Golf Club in Rio Grande.
A 10-foot birdie put on the ninth took him to five under for the round before two more birdies on the 12th and 14th pushed him into the lead.
A bogey on the 17th threatened to sour his round, but Murray recovered to birdie the par-five 18th to ensure a share of the lead alongside Campos.
