FORT WORTH, Texas — Brian Davis and Bryce Molder will share entering the final round at the Colonial.

Davis shot his second consecutive bogey-free 65 on Saturday to get to 16-under 194. That got him even with Molder, who overcame an early double bogey and finished with eight straight pars in a round of 67. Both are searching for their first PGA Tour victory Sunday.

Zach Johnson is a stroke back after a third-round 64, while Ben Crane, Jeff Overton and Jason Bohn are tied for fourth.

Davis lost in a playoff last month to Jim Furyk when he called a two-stroke penalty on himself on the extra hole at Hilton Head. The 35-year-old Englishman had missed the cut in his last three tournaments, but is now in position to win Colonial’s championship plaid jacket.
