Three strokes off the pace at the start of a breezy day, Perez survived a topsy-turvy outward nine on his way to a three-under-par 69 on the Palmer Private course at PGA West. He struck a superb second shot to three feet to set up an eagle at the par-five 18th for a 33-under total of 327, finishing three ahead of compatriot John Merrick (67). Stricker had to settle for a share of third place at 28 under with 2003 winner Mike Weir of Canada (67), closing with an ugly 77 after dropping seven shots in two holes around the turn. |
