Jason Dufner is in line for his first win since the 2013 PGA Championship tomorrow at the CareerBuilder Challenge in partnership with the Clinton Foundation. Dufner is at 23-under par after playing the troika of courses around Palm Springs in nothing worse than 7-under 65.
After an indifferent front nine at La Quinta Country Club on Saturday, Dufner birdied seven of the nine holes on his back side. He holds a two-shot lead over Jamie Lovemark and a three-stroke advantage over Adam Hadwin.
