This week: PGA Tour's Travelers Championship, Thursday through Sunday, TPC River Highlands, Cromwell, Conn.

Moore's third-round score: 2-under-par 68.

Stanley's third-round score: Even-par 70.

Position: Moore (11-under 199) is tied for ninth, and Stanley (203) is tied for 26th. Paul Goydos leads at 194.

Recap: A real solid round again by Moore, who hit all but one green in regulation, but made few of the putts for birdies. He did attack the short par-3 holes on the back nine with 9-irons, and was rewarded, making a 10-footer on the 11th (playing 158 yards), and a 4-footer on the 16th over water (playing 157 yards). … Stanley's mid-range putting hasn't paid dividends this week in his professional debut, and the Gig Harbor product had a golden chance when he peppered a 3-wood from 263 yards out on the par-5 sixth to within 10 feet of the hole. He missed his eagle attempt, but got to 8-under for the tournament. That is as good as it got, because he made two bogeys in the next four holes.

Moore's tee time Sunday: 10:10 a.m. PDT with Jarrod Lyle.

Stanley's tee time Sunday: 8:17 a.m. PDT with Peter Lonard.
