AKRON, Ohio — A steady diet of pars kept Jim Furyk in the lead Saturday in the Bridgestone Invitational, but not by much.

Furyk made his only birdie on the par-5 second hole and had to settle for an even-par 70 at Firestone, giving him a one-shot lead over Louis Oosthuizen going into the final round of this World Golf Championship. Oosthuizen had a 68.

Keegan Bradley, who can move into the top eight in Ryder Cup standings with a runner-up finish, had a 67 and was four shots behind. He will be in the final group Sunday, when tee times are pushed forward to avoid a forecast of thunderstorms.
