Charley Hoffman take 1-shot lead in RBC Canadian Open

Charley Hoffman birdied the final hole for a 7-under-par 65 on Saturday at Glen Abbey to take a one-stroke lead into the final round of the Canadian Open in Oakville, Ontario.

Hoffman, 40, had six birdies in a seven-hole stretch that ended on No. 15, bogeyed the par-4 17th and rebounded with the two-putt birdie on the par-5 18th.

“When you’re playing good, I always say golf is fairly easy,” Hoffman said. “It’s been a fun run the last month or two months; actually all year, and it’s not very stressful, which is good. When you’re trying to make cuts, that’s when golf is hard. ... Have my family out for the next five weeks. They are off for summer break.
