Golf: Iles just two off leaders

New Zealand golfer Bradley Iles remains in contention, two shots off the leaders, after the third round at the second tier Nationwide Tour's Miccosukee Championship in Florida today.

Iles, shared the lead at times during the round but a bogey at the 18th for a one under par 70 left him in a tie for eighth at seven under par.

Four players are tied for the lead at nine under par.

Iles, 52nd on the tour money list, needs to win at least US$50,000 ($67,850) in two remaining tournaments to make the top 25, who automatically qualify for the PGA Tour.
