Third Round: AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am

Dustin Johnson and Paul Goydos have bolted ahead of the rest of the field, as they both hold the lead at -18, four shots ahead of the nearest players. Dustin looked like he was going to run away with the tournament early in his round, playing his first seven holes at -6. But Goydos shot a scorching 31 on his second nine, and both ended the day with 64s. For the most part, this tournament seems like a two man race, but you never know who will make a charge on Sunday.

Notables

J.B. Holmes shot a solid 68 today, putting him at -14, but failed to get any closer to the lead on a day in which nearly everyone lost ground on the leaders.

Phil Mickelson has fallen a full eight shots behind despite a third round 69. He needs to go really low to have a chance tomorrow.

Trunk Slammin'

Retief Goosen shot three rounds in the 70s, not nearly enough to keep pace with the low scores. He struggled with his putter this week, as he had 35 putts today and averaged 32 for the week.

John Daly was erratic, matching 13 birdies and an eagle with 13 bogeys on the week. His game needs to become more consistent if he wants to regain his old form.
