THOUSAND OAKD, Calif., Dec. 7 (UPI) -- Padraig Harrington made three eagles and narrowly missed another Saturday to shoot a course record 9-under 63 and storm to a six-shot lead over Tiger Woods with one round to play at the Target World Challenge.
Woods began the third round owning a one-shot lead over Harrington, but the Irishman was soon pulling away.
Harrington had a 54-hole total of 19-under 197. Woods had to settle for a 2-under 70 and was alone in second at 203.
Harrington rolled in a 10-foot eagle putt at the second, holed a shot from 90 yards out at the fifth and then had an eagle putt of only a foot at the 11th when he hit the pin with his second shot at the par-5 hole.
After another excellent shot at the par-5 13th, Harrington had an eagle putt lip out.
Alone in third place at 204 was Bernhard Langer while David Toms and Nick Price shared fourth at 205.
The tournament, hosted by Woods, has a 16-player field.
