Hanson shoots 80; one of six MDFs at Riviera

Peter Hanson opened his week at the Northern Trust Open with a 2-under-par 69, but a third-round 9-over 41-39=80 means he will not stick around for Sunday's finale.

The Swede finished the week at 9-over 222. He is joined at Riviera CC by Retief Goosen (218), Jeff Maggert (219), Michael Block (221), David Mathis (221) and Jason Kokrak (224) as those without a tee time in the final round. One would think that this is not the way Hanson saw his warm-up for the WGC-Accenture Match Play ending, but now turns his attention to Dove Mountain.

Goydos circles St. Jude for potential return

Paul Goydos alerted his followers on Twitter tonight that he's hoping to return to competition at the FedEx St. Jude Classic on June 6-9.

In response to a query, Goydos wrote: "If things go well this week maybe Fed-Ex St Jude's in Memphis." The last time he was asked, he was eyeing "late spring" for a comeback. He had the second of two wrist surgeries last October. When he returns, the 48-year-old will have 21 starts on his Major Medical Extension to earn $590,290 and retain status. He turns 49 on June 20.

Bae wins Nelson; eighth first-timer of 2013

In his 43rd PGA TOUR start, Sang-moon Bae picked up his first victory on the circuit at the HP Byron Nelson Championship when his final-round 1-under-par 33-36=69 pushed him two ahead of Keegan Bradley.

Bae started off his day at TPC Four Seasons on fire, circling four birdies in a five-hole span beginning with the third. Two of those were from outside 20 feet. He stubbed his toe for the first time at the par-4 ninth, making a double bogey after a poor drive led to an approach in the water. He stayed on tilt with a bogey at 10 and another at 15 before finally bouncing back with a birdie at the par-5 16th. The birdie at 16 gave him a one-stroke advantage over Bradley before the American's bogey at 17 put Bae two clear with one to play. Bae calmly split the fairway at 18, and then landed his approach 19 feet from the hole to put the tournament away at 13-under 267. With this win, he his exempt into the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational and the PGA Championship. He's the eighth first-time winner of the season.

Bolli posts a number at windy HP Byron Nelson

Justin Bolli signed for a bogey-free 5-under-par 32-33=65 in the final round of the HP Byron Nelson Championship to take the lead in the clubhouse at 9-under 271.

On a day where the wind has been a major factor, Bolli's round currently is the lowest of the day. Three of his five birdies came from longer than 17 feet, including one from just off the green on the par-4 10th. The ball-strking was a challenge, splitting just five (of 14) fairways and landing eight GIR, but the putter continually propped him up when needed. Prior to today, his only top 30 was a tie for fourth in Puerto Rico. While it's unlikely that his final tally will net him a win, there are only four players on the course that sit ahead of him with some tough holes to go.

M. Anderson drives away with BMW Pro-Am title

Mark Anderson captured his first Web.com Tour win at the BMW Charity Pro-Am with a final-round 6-under-par 32-33=65 at Thornblade Club, finishing five clear of Tom Hoge.

The University of South Carolina product circled seven birdies to a lone bogey in the final round and completed the tournament at 27-under 63-67-64-65=259. He finished the week sixth in driving distance and tied for ninth in GIR, finding the putting surface 60 (of 72) times in regulation. His 28 birdies led the field. He was a 2011 Web.com Tour graduate, but failed to maintain his status on the PGA TOUR. With this victory, he moves to ninth on the money list and stands an excellent chance at picking up a card for the 2013-14 season.

Uihlein breaks through on the European Tour

With a 4-under-par 36-32=68 in his final round of the Madeira Islands Open, Peter Uihlein recorded a two-stroke victory, his first on a professional circuit.

Uihlein turned pro exactly 17 months ago today and he's just 23 years of age. He posted 15-under 273 at Clube de Golf do Santo da Serra in Santo António. His second-round 64 drew real-time rumblings that he was chasing a 59 as he was 10-under through 12 holes, but it failed to develop since he played his last six holes in birdie-free 2-over. For the week, he converted an eagle and 22 birdies against nine bogeys. Morten Ørum Madsen and Mark Tullo shared runner-up honors in this opposite event on the European Tour. Defending champion Ricardo Santos tied for 19th. After starting the week at 246th in the Official World Golf Ranking, Uihlein should rise about 100 spots thanks to his maiden title.

Oosthuizen (neck) withdraws from the HPBNC

Louis Oosthuizen has withdrawn from the HP Byron Nelson Championship, citing a neck injury.

Oosthuizen was scheduled to tee of at 9:57 a.m. CT alongside Brian Harman. The South African played his first 54 holes in 3-under-par 67-70=70= 207. With top 20s in two of his last three starts on the PGA TOUR, his game appeared to be rounding into form ahead of this week's event. If he's able, he'll try again at the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial.

Graeme McDowell wins Volvo World Match Play

Graeme McDowell defeated Thongchai Jaidee 2 and 1 in the final of the Volvo World Match Play Championship.

The first-ever European Tour event in Bulgaria lived up to its hype both with scenic Thracian Cliffs Golf & Beach Resort in Kavarna and a deserving champion. Jaidee went 2 up after four holes and retained the lead through six. After McDowell picked off a birdie at the par-3 seventh to halve his deficit, he'd eventually draw even at 12. Wins at 14 and 15 followed as Jaidee began to stumble. Overall, G-Mac played 17 holes in bogey-free 3-under. Just four weeks removed from his title at Harbour Town, he climbed the ladder in this week's bracket with victories over Bo Van Pelt (1 up), Nicolas Colsaerts (2 and 1) and Branden Grace (3 and 2). McDowell is also the first native of Ireland or Northern Ireland to win this tournament that dates back to 1964.

Michael Bradley (back) WDs from the Nelson

Michael Bradley has withdrawn from the HP Byron Nelson Championship, citing a back injury.

Bradley was scheduled to tee off in today's final round at 9:21 a.m. CT. He played his first 54 holes in 2-under 68-70-70=208 for what was only his fifth made cut in 13 events. With a season-high T48 at the RBC Heritage highlighting his season, he needed to make the most of his week at TPC Four Seasons.

C. Campbell one of 11 to miss the 54-hole cut

Chad Campbell doubled bogeyed his final hole of the third round at the HP Byron Nelson Championship to miss the 54-hole cut on the number at 2-over 212.

K. Bradley 18 holes from second HPBNC victory

Keegan Bradley continues to hold the lead at the HP Byron Nelson Championship after a 2-under-par 34-34=68 in the third round places him one-stroke clear of Sang-moon Bae at 13-under 197.

Bradley circled five birdies, ranging from 34'3" to four inches, and squared three bogeys at TPC Four Seasons. He only found 10 GIR, but gained 2.599 strokes on the field with his long putter. He ranks sixth in strokes gained for the week. The first of his three PGA TOUR wins came at this event in 2011, and he is in great position to pick up another in Sunday's final round.

Huh in line for first top 10 of '13 at HPBNC

John Huh signed for a 1-under-par 37-32=68 in the third round of the HP Byron Nelson Championship and enters the final round at 8-under 202.

Huh finished in style at TPC Four Seasons, beginning with an eagle from 162 yards at the par-4 14th and continuing with birdies at 16 and 17. Even though his rookie season was a strong one, he has yet to crack a top 10 in 14 PGA TOUR events in 2013. The difference this week has been a strong performance with the irons, landing 77.78 percent of his GIR for the tournament.
