Bhatia’s Big Birdie Runs Helps Him Lead At Pebble Beach

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Akshay Bhatia goes into the final round of the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am with a two-shot lead. He shot a 68 on Saturday with a big run of birdies on the scoring holes early. That gave him enough of a cushion to hold on when the cold wind arrived. Bhatia is up two over Jake Knapp, Collin Morikawa and Sepp Straka. The final hour was a prelude to Sunday. The wind was whipping and golf balls were wobbling on the greens. Wind and rain are in the forecast and tee times have been moved up by an hour.
