[Asia Economy Reporter Tae-won Choi] An Byeong-hun (31) fell further from victory by only reducing one stroke in the third round of the PGA Tour Butterfield Bermuda Championship (total prize money $6.5 million).


On the 30th (Korean time), An Byeong-hun scored just one stroke under par with 5 birdies, 2 bogeys, and 1 double bogey in the third round held at Port Royal Golf Club (par 71, 6,828 yards) in Southampton, Bermuda. His total score stands at 8 under par 205, tied for 38th place.


However, being only 4 strokes behind the tied 9th place, there is still hope for a top 10 finish depending on the final round results.


Starting at the 10th hole (par 4), An showed a strong performance early on but faltered in the latter half, which was disappointing. He raised expectations by making 3 birdies in the first 9 holes but finished the last 3 holes (7th to 9th) with a double bogey, par, and bogey.


Seamus Power (Ireland) and Ben Griffin (USA) are tied for the lead at 18 under par 195 going into the final round.


Power is competing for his first win in 1 year and 4 months since the Barbasol Championship last July, while Griffin is challenging for his first-ever PGA Tour victory.


Aaron Baddeley (Australia) and Kevin Yu (Taiwan) are chasing the leaders by 2 strokes, tied for 3rd place.



No Seung-yeol (31), who was tied for 41st place with An Byeong-hun after the second round, recorded one birdie and one bogey today, failing to reduce his score. He is tied for 47th place with a total of 7 under par 206.
