Gene Sauers chipped in for birdie on the par-4 17th a day after making a double-bogey on the hole, and finished with a 6-under 66 on Saturday to take a two-stroke lead in the Champions Tour's Insperity Championship.
Sauers hit into the water on the 17th hole Friday, but atoned for the mistake Saturday with a 25-yard chip.
"I didn't know whether to flop it or bump-and-run it or anything like that," Sauers said. "So, I just went ahead with my bread and butter like when I was a kid, just hit my sand wedge and hit it perfect."
The 50-year-old Sauers, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour who is making his 10th career start on the 50-and-over tour, had an 8-under 136 total at The Woodlands Country Club.
