MONDAY, 2.00PM:
SOUTH African US Open champion Ernie Els outplayed Tiger Woods to open up a six-stroke lead after the third round of the $2-million Bay Hill Invitational in Orlando, Florida on Sunday.
Els started the round two strokes behind Americans Davis Love III and Woods, but stormed to the top with a seven-under-par 65. Els needed only 24 putts on his way to a 15-under 201, while Woods (73) tied for second with compatriots Bob Estes (67), and Steve Stricker (68).
Love fell eight strokes behind after a dismal round of 75 that included just one birdie.
