Paul Casey hits his tee shot on the 18th hole during the third round of the Deutsche Bank Championship golf tournament on Sept. 4, 2016.Mark Konezny
Paul Casey made a birdie and eagle over the last three holes Sunday for a five-under 66 and a three-shot lead going into the Labour Day finish at the Deutsche Bank Championship.
Casey hit his tee shot to five feet for birdie on the par-three 16th, and then drilled a 3-iron into the swirling wind on the par-five 18th, and it worked out perfectly. It landed just left of the green, caught a ridge and rolled to 30 inches for the eagle.
He was at 15-under 198.
Brian Harman was second after a 68, and PGA champion Jimmy Walker, Kevin Chappell and Smylie Kaufman were four shots back.
The starting times for Monday were moved because remnants of Hermine were expected to produce 56 kilometre-an-hour wind and rain.
