KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- On the longest day of the year, and the first full day of summer, the third round of the Knoxville Open presented by Food City was completed early due to the possibility of thunderstorms.
The storms didn't arrive but Jarrod Lyle, the Mexico Open winner earlier this year, stormed to the lead with a 5-under 67 and a 16-under-par total. Lyle is one ahead of D.J. Brigman who birdied the last hole and shot 70.
Chris Kirk, Doug Barron and Thomas Hagler IV are tied for third at 14 under. Seven players are tied for sixth.
