Three-way tie for U.S. Bank lead

MILWAUKEE, July 24 (UPI) -- Brett Quigley shot a six-under 64 Saturday for a share of the lead through 54 holes of the U.S. Bank Championship.

Patrick Sheehan had a three-under 67, and Carlos Franco a one-under 69 to tie Quigley at 10-under-par 200.

Defending champion Kenny Perry is alone in third place at nine-under-par 201, one ahead of Jason Dufner (68) and Scott Verplank (67).

Franco held the lead throughout much of Saturday's third round.

"That's unbelievable," said Franco, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour. "I forgot about my focus, but still, 10-under is not bad. I need to shoot a low score tomorrow if I want a chance to win."

Quigley, whose best finish on tour was a tie for second in Greensboro three years ago, had a 15 foot putt for eagle, but tapped in for birdie and his second career piece of the 54-hole lead.
