IRVING, Texas (AP) " Rory Sabbatini has already won at Hogan's Alley. Now the South African shares the lead going into the final round at Byron Nelson's tournament.

Two years after his last victory, at the Colonial where Ben Hogan's larger-than-life statue is prominent, Sabbatini is in position to win again. He made five birdies in a seven-hole stretch midway through his third round.
Mallinger also shot a 65 to match Sabbatini at 13-under 197.
Dustin Johnson (66), D.A. Points (65) and Brian Davis (66) were 11 under.
