OAKVILLE, Ontario -- Anthony Kim made nine birdies and an eagle in 21 holes Saturday in the Canadian Open for a share of the lead with Chez Reavie during the suspended third round at rain-softened Glen Abbey.

Kim, tied for 26th at 4 under through 15 holes when second-round play was suspended Friday night, went birdie-birdie-eagle Saturday morning for a 2-under 69, then added a bogey-free 64 in the third round to match Reavie at 15 under.

Reavie was 2 under through 16 holes when darkness ended play on the course saturated by more than 8 inches of rain in a week.

Kim's morning finish gave him a 7-under 29 on the back nine after he played the front nine Friday in 5-over 40. He birdied the par-5 18th in fading light to tie Reavie.

Scott McCarron had a 63 -- the best round of the week -- to get to 12 under.

Steve Marino (67) also was 12 under, and Billy Mayfair (68) followed at 11 under. Canadian star Mike Weir birdied four of the last five holes for 68 to join to Mark Calcavecchia (67), Sean O'Hair (67) and Nicolas Thompson (70)at 10 under. Two-time defending champion Jim Furyk was 8 under after a 67.

Evian Masters

EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France -- Angela Park birdied the final three holes for a 4-under 68 to keep a one-shot lead after the third round.

The 19-year-old Park, who has dual Brazilian and American citizenship, had a total of 14-under 202. Taiwan-born Candie Kung, who also has U.S. citizenship, was one shot back after a 67.

Julie Inkster of the United States, the 2003 champion, was third at 11 under after a 69, her third straight sub-70 round. Sweden's Helen Alfredsson, who trailed Park by one stroke after a course-record 63 Friday, was four shots back in fourth following a 71.

Top-ranked Lorena Ochoa had a 70 to be one of four players tied for seventh place, six shots behind Park.

Senior British Open

TROON, Scotland -- John Cook took a one-stroke lead, shooting a 4-under 67 to capitalize on the midround collapse of fellow American Bruce Vaughan.

Vaughan birdied the par-3 eighth to take a three-shot lead at 7-under, but then bogeyed four straight and Cook rolled in a 4-foot birdie at 13 for a two-stroke lead at Royal Troon.

The 50-year-old Cook, who was runner-up to Nick Faldo at the British Open at Muirfield 16 years ago, goes into Sunday's final round at 6-under 207, leading Vaughan by one shot as he chases his first major on the Seniors tour.

Vaughan came back with a birdie at No. 18 for a 69 and was one stroke ahead of Eduardo Romero, who had a 68. Tom Watson and Bernhard Langer both shot 71 and were another three shots back. Greg Norman, who had a bogey-free 67, was tied for sixth at 1-over 214.
