Through two holes of his final round, Martin Laird was two under, pushing his Barclays-leading total to -14. It looked as if he were on pace to cruise through Sunday’s action and pick up a victory.
Barclays, Final Round: Laird Keeping Things Interesting With Subpar Sunday
Well, funny thing--Laird doubled the third and bogeyed the fourth, and he hasn’t made any progress to improving his score since then. So Laird is now on top of the field by only one stroke at -11 as he heads toward the back nine.
Meanwhile, Steve Stricker is the latest golfer to make a final-round push here, climbing to -10 going into 18. If he can finish at -10, there’s really no telling whether anybody else is going to top that score. Laird’s already +1 on Sunday--who’s going to guarantee he doesn’t fall any further? Wait, check that, he just birdied 11 and he’s back up by two strokes. But still.
