Eddie Hargett moved to the front of the Senior Open division at the North & South Senior Men's Amateur Championship, pairing an opening 68 with a second-round 72 for a four-under total of 140 to carry a one-shot lead into Wednesday's final round at Pinehurst Resort.
A logjam sits one stroke back at three under, where Ed Kerr (71-70), Gregory Seelinger (70-71), Stan Humphries (70-71) and Philip Geiger (69-72) share second at 141. Kevin VandenBerg (73-69), Rick Stewart (70-72) and Michael Standard (69-73) are another shot adrift at two under, leaving the Senior Open race tightly bunched with 18 holes to play.
