Gary Woodland maintains OHL Classic lead in Mexico

Published November 13, 2016

Gary Woodland took a one-stroke lead into the final round of the PGA Tour's OHL Classic at Mayakoba after dropping two strokes on the par-3 15th Saturday.

Woodland finished with a 5-under 66 to reach 18-under 195 on Mayakoba's Greg Norman-designed El Camaleon course. He won the last of his two tour titles in 2013.

Woodland birdied the first seven odd-number holes, then ended the string with the double bogey on 15 when his tee shot went long into the hazard. He played the first 51 holes without a bogey.

Pat Perez was second after a 62. He played the front nine in 7-under 29, making an eagle on the par-5 fifth. The one-time tour winner recently returned from shoulder surgery.

Scott Piercy was 16 under after a 66, Seamus Power (64) was 15 under, and Webb Simpson (69) followed at 14 under.

Defending champion Graeme McDowell was 8 under after his second straight 65. He opened with a 75.
