Alex Prugh has carded rounds of 64-66-65, 21-under to lead titan hitter Bubba Watson by one shot going into round 4 on Sunday. Because of some intense weather the five round Bob Hope will have a Monday finish.
Exactly who is Alex Prugh anyway? A PGA Tour rookie that got his 2010 card by finishing 16th on the Nationwide Tour money list in '09, that included a win in New Zealand. A high finish this week could go a long way to help Prugh secure a 2011 PGA Tour card as well.
Mike Weir continues to make a quiet move up the leaderboard shooting three consecutive 67's to move into 8th only 6 back with two rounds to go.
One surprise however is the missed cut by young phenom Rickie Fowler. Fowler shot unimpressive rounds of 74-70-75 to miss the 54-hole cut. In a post interview Fowler stated that his swing feels "terrible, it doesn't feel very good." He said he'll go work on some things and figure it out before his next start. And what happened to first round leader Shane Bertsch? He followed his 10-under 62 with rounds of 69, and 77 to fall into a tie for 56th.
Stay posted for updates.
Cheers,
