Double P Shoots 68 in Third Round at Mirasol
PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL - Sitting at -1 on the tournament, Double P was quickly +2 on the day after his first two holes. A grim start after entering the day t29th.Sixteen holes later he found himself at -4 on the day, four strokes off the lead and t8th entering Sunday's round.
Perez birdied #4, #10, #13, #15, #17 and #18 - as well as netting his second eagle in as many tourneys (#6) had him shooting up the leaderboard. While many others wilted down the stretch, Perez closed the back nine with three of his six birdies on the day in his final four holes.
In 2005, Perez wrapped up his week at Mirasol -13 on the tourney - one stroke shy of the -14 it'd have taken to be part of a playoff with Padraig Harrington, Joe Olgilve and Vijay Singh - with Harrington earning his first tour victory.
Will last year's experience be the difference in 2006? Four strokes and seven fierce competitors currently stand between Double P and his first Tour victory.
Tune in tomorrow as Pat tees of at 12:49pm ET and will lay it all on the line, looking for that long awaited inaugural PGA Tour win.

Congratulations on your 68 today. This is the perfect course for you to go out in front of the leaders, jump on the first twelve holes, and post a number they can't match. Here's hoping tomorrow brings your first of many wins. You have it in you, so get it done. I want to see you in the Masters this year! Have a great day. By the way, Tony gave me one of your shot glasses, so I'll be able to toast your win tomorrow. GIT 'EM!!
