Johnson leads after rainy day
Dustin Johnson finished with three birdies over his last four holes for another 5-under 66 to take a one-shot lead after 36 holes of the rain-delayed Genesis Open in Los Angeles.
Johnson has three victories in 54-hole events, though this figures to go 72 holes, even if that means going into Monday. Heavy rain across southern California wiped out seven hours of play Friday and caused a two-hour delay Saturday morning.
Pat Perez birdied the last two holes for a 66 and was one shot behind, along with Cameron Tringale (64). In other news: • Lizette Salas shot a 2-under 71 to take a twostroke lead into the final round of the Women’s Australian Open at Royal Adelaide in Australia.
