Paul Casey will take a one-shot lead over Dustin Johnson into the final round of the Valspar Championship. Heres where things stand through 54 holes at Innisbrook:Leaderboard: Casey (-9), Johnson (-8), Kokrak (-7), Luke Donald (-6), Scott Stallings (-6)What it means: This weeks defending champion, Casey is hunting his third PGA Tour win and second Valspar title. The 36-hole co-leader, Casey pulled away from the field with three birdies in a four-hole stretch at Nos. 11, 12 and 14. But he saw his lead cut from two to one when he dropped a shot on his final hole to finish off a 3-under 68. With a win Sunday, Casey would become the first player to successfully defend the Valspar Championship and the latest player to go back to back on Tour since Brooks Koepka at last years U.S. Open. Giving chase will be the No. 1 player in the world, Johnson, who is looking for his second win in three starts, following a victory in Mexico and a T-5 at The Players. Hell join Casey in the final pairing Sunday.
