American Keegan Bradley sunk a birdie on the 18th to leapfrog Adam Scott and take a one-shot lead following the third spherical of the BMW Championship.

Bradley made essentially the most of a rollercoaster day, splitting eight birdies with six bogeys to card a two-under 70 and head into the ultimate day at Fortress Pines Golf Membership on 12-under par.

He overtook Scott for the highest spot on the ultimate gap, with the Australian struggling to a third-round rating of 74 – with two late birdies serving to him communicate with Bradley.

Talking after his spherical, Scott mentioned: “I felt like I made a meal of that, and I didn’t feel like I did that much wrong – a couple of drives were just not quite right, and a three-putt, and all of a sudden I’m chasing.

“I am in a great spot on the finish of it to be one again.”

Clubhouse chief Bradley believed his combating spirit prevailed in difficult situations.

“It was tough out there today,” the Crew USA Ryder Cup captain admitted. “It was actually windy, quite a lot of elevated tees that have been into the wind, which makes it actually robust.

“Proud of the way I fought today. I played some brilliant golf but I hit also some terrible shots, too. I guess that’s the way of the world. But I’m proud of the way I fought there in the end.

“I advised myself after these three bogeys in a row that I used to be both tied for the lead or perhaps one again… I actually hit high quality pictures coming in after that.”

The Swedish duo of Ludvig Ã…berg and Alex Noren are tied for third on 10-under par, after carding 71 and 70 respectively.

American Xander Schauffele is three pictures additional again on seven beneath.
