Lahiri drops to T63, Kuchar in lead

Honolulu: Indian golfer Anirban Lahiri ended with a one-over 71 in the third round that saw him drop to three-under 207 for a

Tied-63rd spot at the Sony Open. The lead stayed with Matt Kuchar, who kept another clean card and shot a 4-under 66 to take a two-shot lead into the final round of the Sony Open as he goes for his second victory this season on the PGA TOUR. Kuchar ended a three-year drought by winning the Mayakoba Classic in Mexico last fall. In his third round, Lahiri found seven of 14 fairways and 14 of

18 greens in regulation but left no misses on putts within 10 feet. His only birdie of the day came on ninth, when he landed his third shot to seven feet and holed it for a birdie. Kuchar has made only one bogey through 54 holes at Waialae Country Club, and his

18-under 192 was the lowest 54hole score of his career. Andrew Putnam was two shots behind after a 67.
