ST. SIMONS ISLAND, Ga. - Charles Howell III had a 2-under 68 for a one-shot lead Saturday in the RSM Classic, along with a reminder that winning for the first time in more than 11 years won't be easy.
With two quick birdies early on Moving Day, Howell stretched his lead to five shots.
But by the end of the third round, his lead was down to one over PGA Tour rookie Cameron Champ and Jason Gore, who each shot 66 and made up ground on the back nine of the Seaside course at Sea Island.
Howell was at 16 under as he tries to end a 332-start drought on the PGA Tour without winning.
