Tracking local golfers on the PGA Tour for May 27
TODD MILLES
This week: Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial, through today, Colonial Country Club, Fort Worth, Texas.
In the field: Puyallup’s Ryan Moore, Gig Harbor’s Kyle Stanley.
Moore’s third-round score: Even-par 70.
Position: Moore (4-under 206) is tied for seventh place, 11 strokes behind leader Jason Dufner (66) at 195. Stanley (6-over 146) missed the cut Friday.
Recap: Moore is one of 11 golfers in the field to shoot par or better for each of the three rounds on this tricky layout with its small greens. He hit his approach at the seventh hole close, and sank a 4-foot putt for birdie but could not escape the rough on any of his first three shots on the par 5 11th, and made bogey.
Moore’s tee time today: 10:05 a.m. (PDT).
