Reed dodges controversy to share 54-hole lead at Farmers
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Patrick Reed was involved in another controversy during a round of 2-under 70 that gave him a share of the lead at 10-under with Carlos Ortiz in the third round of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines. Reed said his ball was embedded in the rough after he hit out of a bunker on the par-4 10th on the South Course. Reed picked up the ball before a rules official arrived and told the official that no one in his group, as well as a nearby volunteer, saw the ball bounce. A TV replay showed the ball bounced once before settling into the rough. Reed was awarded a free drop and saved par.
