WASHINGTON: Defending champion Patrick Cantlay fired a six under-par 65 to open up a one-shot lead at the PGA Tour's BMW Championship in Delaware on Saturday (Sunday in Manila).

Cantlay, bidding to become the first player in FedEx Cup postseason history to successfully defend a tournament title, conjured six birdies and an eagle at Wilmington Country Club for a 54-hole aggregate of 12-under 201.
