Sunday, August 11, 2024 Peter Uihlein leads the International Series England after a two-under-par 69, eyeing his first Asian Tour win with a one-shot lead. Peter Uihlein, an American golfer, is poised to secure his inaugural victory on the Asian Tour and The International Series. He maintained his lead following the third round of the International Series England, a tournament with a prize pool of US$2 million.
Starting the day in the lead, Uihlein successfully chipped in a birdie on the 18th hole, a par-five at the Longcross course at Foxhills Club & Resort in Surrey. He concluded the round with a score of two-under-par 69, positioning him at 12-under overall, just one stroke ahead of his fellow American Harold Varner III. Varner shot a 65 to take a one-stroke lead over English golfer Richard Bland, who scored a 68, and American Caleb Surratt, who carded a 69.
“It was a bit up and down today,” said Uihlein , four times a runner-up individually on the LIV Golf League but twice on a winning team. “I feel like I hit a lot of greens until the end. I missed one green early and made double, and then feel like I hit pretty much every green until 15, so I sort of had a run going.
“And then I missed technically four [greens] straight coming in, so that was fun. But was able to salvage a little bit which was nice. So yeah, it was a bit of an up and down, made some nice putts at the end, missed some putts kind of in middle of the round, so it kind of offset each other.
