Furyk grabs lead at Wachovia, Goosen lurks
Jim Furyk hit a 7-iron that landed softly on the 16th green and trickled within 2 feet of the cup, a birdie that allowed him to get his nose in front Saturday at the Wachovia Championship. Furyk did just enough on a rain-softened Quail Hollow to shoot a 4-under 68, giving him a one-shot lead over South Africans Retief Goosen and Trevor Immelman and a good chance to redeem a bitter playoff loss a year ago.
"I'm happy with the way I played," said Furyk, who was at 11-under 205 and was the only player to shoot in the 60s all three days. "I'm happy to be out front at this point. I've got another round of golf tomorrow and I need to attack the golf course again and try to post one more good round."The forecast has so much rain that starting times have been moved up five hours with hopes of finishing. That figures to make Quail Hollow even softer -- and longer -- and create a wide-open race among the 10 players within five shots of the lead.
