JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- Keith Mitchell finished with a pair of birdies Saturday for a 7-under 65 and avoided some of the blunders that tripped up other contenders, giving him a one-shot lead going into the final round of the Sanderson Farms Championship.
At stake for Mitchell, whose lone PGA Tour victory was more than five years ago, is a chance to earn a spot in four premium events on the PGA Tour next year.
He holed a birdie putt from just inside 40 feet on the 17th hole, then finished by correctly judging his lie in the rough with an approach to 6 feet for his last birdie. Mitchell, who was at 20-under 196, had a one-shot lead over Beau Hossler.
