Parker McLachlin
Parker McLachlin made nine-foot eagle putt and shot a 6-under 66 today to set a course record for 54 holes at 20-under par and take a six-stroke lead over England's Brian Davis into the final round of the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open.
McLachlin, a second-year player on the PGA Tour, opened with a 68 and tied the course record yesterday with a 62. In addition to the eagle today he added five birdies and his first bogey in two days for a record three-round total of 196 at Montreux Golf & Country Club.
The 29-year-old has won on the Hooters Tour, Tight Lies Tour, Gateway Tour and Spanos Tour, but never the PGA Tour.
Davis who eagled the 616-yard ninth when he drove the ball 342 yards then hit his second shot 266 yards to within 6 feet of the pin. He ended up with a 68 on his 34th birthday to move into second place at 14-under 202.
