Anderson Creek’s Todd Matthews fired a bogey-free 7-under par 64 to take a 3 shot lead into the final round of the 48th Brick Capital Classic Golf Tournament at Sanford Golf Club. Matthews carded nines of 32-32 to finish one shot off the tournament record of 63 and positioned himself to win the Brick Capital in only his 3rd time in the event.
Matthews missed only 2 greens on the day and admitted his two par putts from 5-8 feet on holes 3 & 4 were the biggest putts of the round – and kept him on pace to card his tournament leading round. “The two par putts I made at 3 & 4 were the biggest putts of the day – much more than any of the birdie putts – and it kept me going in the right direction.” Matthews sprinkled 7 birdies on the card, and it helped him turn in the low round of the day by 3 shots.
Matthews will start the day three shots ahead of Broadway’s Ryan Patterson, who carded a 4-under par 67 and 4 shots clear of a large group at 68. The 2nd round is scheduled to start at 1:30 on Sunday.
