Barnes still leads ahead of final round

Ricky Barnes took a one-shot lead into the final round of the US Open but it could have been so much better for the American at Bethpage Black.

Barnes shot a third-round 70 to stay at eight under par through 54 holes, one clear of compatriot Lucas Glover and five ahead of England’s Ross Fisher and American David Duval as the 60-man field prepared to make a quick turnaround and head back out to get the final round under way.
