One round to go

Three rounds are in the books at Bethpage Black, with Ricky Barnes clinging to a one-shot lead over Lucas Glover. Barnes, a PGA Tour rookie in search of his first major championship, built a six-shot lead during the third round, but five bogeys over his final 12 holes -- and a 3-under 32 by Glover on the back nine -- have placed the two exactly where they started the third round, separated by one stroke.

Glover and Barnes will be in the final twosome, and are scheduled to go back out there in about two hours: 7:37 p.m., to be exact. It's overcast, but on Friday night play continued until 8:25 or so. Expect Barnes and Glover to play two or three holes, then return tomorrow morning.

David Duval and Ross Fisher are tied for third at 3 under, with Phil Mickelson, Mike Weir, and Hunter Mahan all at 2 under. Mickelson birdied the 18th hole, his seventh and final birdie of the round. Phil being Phil, he offset the seven birdies with four bogeys and a double, shooting 69.

As for Tiger Woods? He shot a 68 in the third round, and is tied for 15th, nine strokes behind Barnes. It's a tall order, but not unheard-of in major championships. Paul Lawrie came from 10 strokes back to win the 1999 British Open.
