Sabbatini holds one-shot lead over Woods

CHARLOTTE, NORTH CAROLINA: Tiger Woods bogeyed the final hole on Saturday to hand Rory Sabbatini the third-round lead in the 6.4 million-dollar Wachovia Championship.

South Africa's Sabbatini carded an 8-under-par 64, capped by a birdie at 18, matching the Quail Hollow course record.

He had an 11-under total of 205, one better than Woods, who carded a 68.

Fiji's Vijay Singh and American Arron Oberholser both carded 69s to share third on 207.

Woods botched the par-4 18th, where he pushed his drive into the right rough and hit his second shot left of the green.

Woods wasn't the only player to run into trouble at 18. Singh bogeyed there when his long putt for par lipped out, and Oberholser had a double-bogey.

Sabbatini's lead should come as no surprise. Just last month he tied for second at The Masters. 

"I just managed to keep the ball in play and the rain slowing the greens up just a touch made it a little easier to be a little aggressive with the putter," said Sabbatini, who eagled the first hole and never looked back.

The start of play Saturday was delayed for two hours by nearby thunderstorms, leaving the leaders in danger of not being able to complete their rounds before darkness. 

Woods and Singh played in the final pairing.
