PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. – Ted Potter Jr.’s bid to become the 10th player in PGA Tour history to break 60 was derailed with a bogey-bogey finish Saturday at Monterey Peninsula, but there was considerable consolation at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am.
Potter got himself in contention to win his second PGA Tour title, signing for a 9-under-par 62.
At 14 under overall, he is tied for the lead with world No. 1 Dustin Johnson (70).
Potter birdied the sixth (his 15th hole of the day) to get to 11 under. He knew he needed to finish the final three holes in 1 under to shoot 59.
