Kevin Sutherland birdied three of the final seven holes Saturday for a 5-under 67 and the second-round lead in the Champions Tour's Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic.

Those birdies pushed him to the top, and he protected the lead with key par saves from bunkers on the final two holes, including one from a buried lie and awkward stance on the par-3 17th.
