Sweden's Pettersson leads PGA in Arizona

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 20 (UPI) -- Carl Pettersson of Sweden shot a 6-under 64 Saturday to take a one-stroke lead after three rounds of the PGA Fry's Electronics Open at Scottsdale, Ariz.

Pettersson is at 13-under 197. Canadian Mike Weir (65) and Australian Mark Hensby (66) are tied for second at 12-under 198 after 54 holes.

Second-round leader Ryan Moore struggled Saturday to a 1-over 71 and is tied for fourth with Jarrod Lyle (64) at 10-under 200.

Pettersson birdied the first hole and then had back-to-back birdies at the fourth and fifth holes to get to 10-under. He missed several easy birdie chances to polish off his front nine but made a 10-foot birdie putt at No. 10 that tied him for the lead at the time with Billy Mayfair.

He two-putted for a birdie at the par-five 11th and was alone in first at 12-under.

Hensby joined Petterson in the lead with a chip-in birdie at the 13th. The two played with Weir in a threesome Saturday.
