Higgo leads by 2 at Canary Islands Championship

<p>TENERIFE, Spain &mdash; Garrick Higgo made four birdies in his last four holes to shoot a 7-under 64 that gave him a two-shot lead entering the final round of the Canary Islands Championship on Saturday.</p>
<p>Higgo also made two eagles to move to 20 under at the European Tour event in Tenerife. </p>
<p>“I was just trying to stay patient because I’m hitting good putts and I’m hitting the ball a lot better than I have the last couple of weeks," Higgo said. “I’ve been giving myself a lot more chances so it’s hard to stay patient when you’ve got a lot of putts.”</p>
<p>Richard Mansell, who also carded a 64, was second. </p>
<p>Calum Hill was another shot back in third place.</p>
<p>Halfway leader Adri Arnaus dropped seven shots back in the third round thanks in part to a quadruple bogey on the par-5 third hole.</p>
