MADISON, Miss., Oct. 4 (UPI) -- Rookie Chris Anderson moved closer to earning his 2004 PGA tour card after keeping himself in contention Saturday at the Southern Farm Bureau Classic.
Anderson closed within two strokes of leader John Huston with a 5-under-par 67.
While it's the "other" tournament on the PGA Tour this week. it offers enough money for players such as Anderson to earn his playing privileges next year.
The top 125 on the money list at the end of the year keep their tour cards.
Huston, a 16-year veteran, has led after each of the first three rounds. His 68 on Saturday gave him a 54-hole total of 16-under 200.
Paul Stankowski is tied with Anderson at 14-under 202. Defending champion Luke Donald of England is fifth at 203, with Shigeki Maruyama of Japan and South African Tim Clark four strokes off the pace at 204.
