McDowell seeking another Honda Classic top ten

Graeme McDowell 

Graeme McDowell birdied his last three holes to move up to 32nd with a round to go in the Honda Classic.

The former US Open champion signed for a two-under-par 68 to get to three-under-par and remain in the hunt for what would be his fifth top-10 finish at PGA National in seven years.

He's also just $210,041 short of breaking the $15m barrier in career earnings on the PGA Tour.

The Portrush native, who is just $210,041 short of breaking the $15m barrier in career earnings on the PGA Tour, is three shots outside the top-10.

He's also ten strokes behind Rickie Fowler, who added a 65 to his brace of 66s to lead by four strokes from England's Tyrell Hatton (68 67 66) on 13-under-par.

Ryan Palmer, who was tied for the overnight lead with Bryan on nine-under, slipped back to tied eighth on six-under after a 73.
