Fowler builds 4-shot lead in Honda Classic

PALM BEACH GARDENS, FLA. >> Winless in more than a year, Rickie Fowler finished strong Saturday for a 5-under 65 and built a four-shot lead going into the final round of the Honda Classic.

Fowler made two birdies over the last three holes at relatively benign PGA National as everyone else around him was making mistakes.

Fowler holed a 10-foot birdie putt on the 16th, got a potential break with a ruling behind the 17th green that allowed him to use a putter instead of a wedge, and then closed with a drive so bold and big that he had only a 7-iron into the par-5 18th that set up a twoputt birdie. That put him at 13-under 197. Fowler was four shots ahead of Tyrrell Hatton of England, playing his first PGA Tour event in Florida. CHONBURI, THAILAND >> Amy Yang had a four-stroke lead in the LPGA Thailand at 17 under with five holes left when third-round play was suspended because of darkness.
