Brendon Todd closes in on unthinkable third-straight victory at Sea Island



Now just six days later, he’s back in a now-familiar position of leading on the PGA Tour. But a repeat of last week is no sure thing. To win on Sunday, he’ll have to get past a large group of competitors close behind. 2012 U.S. Open champion Webb Simpson sits just two shots back thanks to rounds of 65-68-63 over the first three days. Simpson is experiencing a career-renaissance of his own, having risen back to No. 12 in the world.

Tied with Simpson at 16 under is another former Tour winner, Sebastián Muñoz, with D.J. Trahan one more back at 15 under. But Todd didn’t just suddenly find his game on Saturday. He opened the tournament with matching rounds of 66 to put himself in contention (not to mention his two recent wins), so it’s unlikely he’ll surrender his lead easily.
