Finau leads by 4 at windy Houston Open

LOS ANGELES: Tony Finau steered a steady course at the blustery Houston Open Saturday (Sunday in Manila), firing a two-under par 68 to maintain a four-shot lead heading into the final round.

The 15th-ranked American, seeking a fifth US PGA Tour title, rolled in a 21-foot birdie putt at the eighth and an 18-footer at the 14th on the way to a 15-under par total of 195 that put him four in front of England's Ben Taylor.
