Andrew Novak Surges to Six-Shot Lead at 2025 Mexico Open with 62

Andrew Novak carded a stunning 9-under 62 on Saturday to seize a commanding six-shot lead heading into the final round of the Mexico Open at Vidanta Vallarta. The American's third round featured a blistering stretch on the back nine, where he played the first five holes in five under par to separate from the field. Novak, seeking his first PGA Tour victory, sits at 19-under overall, leaving a chasing pack that includes several contenders needing a monumental Sunday charge. His performance marks the lowest round of the week and underscores his comfort on the Greg Norman-designed course. With a six-shot cushion, Novak is in prime position to convert, but golf's unpredictable nature means he must stay sharp. A win would secure his place in the Masters and PGA Championship, adding major implications to his final-round quest.
