SAN ANTONIO — Brian Harman survived 30 mph wind by playing the final 13 holes without a bogey, giving him an even-par 72 and a three-shot lead in a Valero Texas Open so difficult that only six players managed to break par. Harman had his chance to join them until narrowly missing a 12-foot birdie attempt on the final hole at the TPC San Antonio.

Harman, standing at 12 under and most closely followed by Keith Mitchell (72), is trying to notch his fourth win overall and first since the Open Championship. Heading to the 18th hole on Friday, Harman had a five-shot lead but sliced his drive into the trees, had to punch out and eventually missed a 12-foot putt for par.
