GOLF ROUNDUP Birdie binge puts Moore in lead at Valspar Comment By The Associated Press MailTribune.com By The Associated Press Posted Mar. 14, 2015 at 7:28 PM Updated Mar 14, 2015 at 7:30 PM By The Associated Press Posted Mar. 14, 2015 at 7:28 PM Updated Mar 14, 2015 at 7:30 PM » Social News PALM HARBOR, Fla. — Ryan Moore had no trouble explaining how, after 12 consecutive pars to start the third-round of the Valspar Championship, he birdied four of the final six holes Saturday. "I just hit it closer," he said. The result was a 4-under 67 that pushed Moore to a 54-hole total of 9-under 204 and a one-shot lead over Jordan Spieth on Innisbrook Resort's Copperhead course. Spieth shot 68. Derek Ernst was another stroke back after a 69. The field was like a crowded freeway early before Moore finally opened up some space. When the final pairing of Brendon de Jonge and Spieth reached its fifth hole, they were part of an eight-way tie for the lead at 5 under. Another seven players were a shot back. Twenty-seven were within three. While de Jonge, who led by one after 36 holes, shot 75 and fell off the pace, Moore, seeking his fifth career win, moved steadily along in the swirling wind until sprinting to the finish. "Any day around this golf course with no bogies is pretty good especially the spots where I hit it," Moore said. "I was able to save par really low in the middle of my round, made some good putts but had some good chip shots. Was able to get it rolling there and make some birdies coming in." The first birdie, coming on the 200-yard par-13th with a 6-iron to 8 1/2 feet, was the springboard. Spieth was tied for the lead until Moore's birdie at 18. Spieth saved par at that hole with a one-putt from 6 feet. "I got a lot of confidence at the end right there with my putter," Spieth said. "I had those 6-, 7- footers that, you know, when I'm close but not quite there those are the ones that slide by the hole because I just kind of baby it a little bit and hit confident putts coming in. Hopefully, that does a lot of good for me tomorrow." Nine players are within five shots. WEB.COM BRASIL: At Sao Paulo, Brazil, Ashland's Jason Allred jumped up 14 spots to stand tied for 12th place after shooting a 5-under-par 66 during the third round of the rain-delayed Brasil Champions at Sao Paulo Golf Club on Saturday. Afternoon thunderstorms halted play for a third consecutive afternoon and pushed the end of the third round into today. Rookie Tyler Duncan and Peter Malnati shared the lead at 15-under after 13 and 12 holes, respectively. Allred — who stands at 12-under par — was able to finish his round, and did so in efficient fashion. He recorded six birdies to just one bogey, which came on the 17th hole. He and Timothy Madigan are tied for first among those who have completed three rounds.  WORLD LADIES CHAMPIONSHIP:  At Haikou, China, defending champion Inbee Park birdied two of the last four holes for a 2-under 71 and a one-stroke lead in the Ladies European Tour's World Ladies Championship. The second-ranked Park had a 10-under 209 total on Mission Hills' Blackstone Course. The South Korean star won the HSBC Women's Champions in Singapore on Sunday for her 13th LPGA Tour title. South Korea's So Yeon Ryu was second after a 65.
