LAS VEGAS (AP) -- Chad Campbell made a double bogey on the par-5 16th, then birdied the 18th for a 4-under 67 and a share of the third-round lead with Scott Piercy on Saturday in the Justin Timberlake Shriners Hospitals for Children Open.

Piercy -- a Las Vegas native whose wife, Sara, delivered son Jett on Thursday night -- had a 65 to match Campbell, a former UNLV player, at 17-under 196 at TPC Summerlin.

Martin Laird (67) was a stroke back, and George McNeill (63), Jason Bohn (65), Jeff Klauk (66) and Bob Heintz (68) followed at 15 under.
