GREENSBORO, N.C. ? Few leads are really safe at birdie-friendly Sedgefield Country Club. The last time Sergio Garcia played here, he learned the hard way.
Garcia shot a 4-under-par 66 Saturday to take the lead at 14-under 196 after three rounds at the Wyndham Championship, a PGA Tour event.
It is a familiar spot for the Spaniard, who shared the third-round lead in 2009 but wound up finishing fourth after falling a stroke shy of a three-man playoff.
"Eighteen pars are not going to win it," Garcia said. "You have to make some birdies out there. ... I don't have a number. I'm not going to say I need to shoot 4 under, 5 under or whatever. Someone might go out and shoot 9 under, and 5 under's not good enough."
Tim Clark (67) and Bud Cauley (66) were a stroke back in the last event before the FedEx Cup playoffs.
Ex-Washington Huskies player Richard H. Lee (65) was tied for 10th place at 10 under.
Ryan Moore (68) of Puyallup was tied for 53rd at 3 under and ex-UW player Troy Kelly (69) was tied for 61st at 2 under.
Garcia ? whose second-round 63 marked his best PGA Tour round in a decade ? made a move with birdies on Nos. 12 and 13 that helped him leapfrog his playing partner, Clark.
