Fowler chases down Kang, but falters at finish

Sung Kang had been threatening to run away with the Shell Houston Open, beginning the day with a six-shot lead, but Rickie Fowler had other ideas. That is, until Fowler got to the final two holes. Here's how things stand going into the final round at the Golf Club of Houston:

What it means: With a five-birdie front-nine 31, Fowler picked up five shots on Kang over the first nine holes. He finally caught him at 17 under, but a floundering finish left Fowler three shots back.

Round of the day: Luke List had the day's low round, a 7-under 65 that vaulted him 14 spots into a tie for third.
