Steve Stricker chips in twice, takes 1-shot lead into Kaulig Companies Championship final round at Firestone

AKRON, Ohio — Steve Stricker chipped in twice for birdie on the last five holes and shot a 3-under 67 on Saturday at Firestone to take a one-stroke lead into the final round of the Kaulig Companies Championship.

“I didn’t play very well today, I scored well,” said Stricker, the 57-year-old Wisconsin player who won at Firestone in 2021 and 2023. Stricker has seven major titles and 17 overall victories on the 50-and-over tour. He had three bogeys in the round. “It’s one of those courses that just keeps coming after you, too. If you’re off a little bit, you pay the price.”“Can’t see the ball land and I just watched the crowd behind,” Els said. “The one tall guy behind just went really ballistic, so I knew it was in so it was really cool.”
