World No. 290 Max McGreevy (USA) took the lead by 1 stroke (17 under par) after a 9-under-par surge the previous day. He played 3 holes today, scoring 1 under par. It is interesting that he was cut 15 times in the previous 22 tournaments. While big stars participated in the Genesis Scotiabank Open during the same period, he is targeting this 'niche market.' Marti Schmidt (Germany) and Adam Svensson (Canada) are tied for 2nd place, 1 stroke behind (16 under par).
