Jake Knapp Dominates Mexico Open with Four-Shot Lead

PGA Tour rookie Jake Knapp sets a blistering pace at the Mexico Open, matching the 54-hole record and eyeing his first tour win.

PGA Tour rookie Jake Knapp carded 11 birdies during an eight-under 63 on Saturday, opening up a four-shot lead after three rounds of the Mexico Open.
Knapp's 19-under 194 matches the 54-hole record at Vidanta, set last year by Tony Finau.
Fellow rookie Sami Valimaki is in second place, four shots behind Knapp, with other contenders trailing by at least seven shots.
Knapp, who has spent years on the Canadian and Korn Ferry Tours, is seeking his first PGA win.
A victory for Knapp would not only secure his first PGA win but also come with a two-year exemption and a spot in the remaining five $20 million signature events and the PGA Championship.
