Spencer Levin opens 6-stroke lead in Phoenix Open

February 4, 2012 RSS Feed Print

He was asked about playing with a big lead for the first time in his PGA Tour career.

"I tried not to think about it," Levin said. "I was just trying to focus on my game and my ball, and it worked out good today. I tried as hard as I could just to do what I did the first two days, and that's what I'm going to do tomorrow, too."

The start of play was delayed 15 minutes because of front after hour delays the first two days. Last year, frost and frozen greens delayed play nine hours during the week, forcing a Monday finish.

DIVOTS: The event has drawn 459,815 fans, starting with practice Monday. There were 77,053 fans Thursday, and 116,299 Friday. The tournament record for a week is 538,356, set in 2008. ... Defending champion Wilson, coming off a victory two weeks ago in the Humana Challenge, was even par after a 74.
