Golf | Robert Allenby shares lead in Australian Masters

Tim Clark of South Africa shot a 2-under 70 on Friday at Huntingdale to take a one-stroke lead after two rounds of the Australian Masters.

The Associated Press

MELBOURNE, Australia — Robert Allenby holed a 3-wood shot for a double eagle on the par-5 seventh and finished with a 5-under 67 on Saturday for a share of the third-round lead in the Australian Masters with playing partner Michael Sim.

Sim shot a 68 to match Allenby at 10-under 206 on the Huntingdale Golf Club course.

Ashley Hall (68) was two strokes back, and Rod Pampling (70), Anthony Summers (71) and England's Steve Webster (70) were another shot behind at 7 under.
