CASTLE ROCK, Colo.—Adam Scott kept making birdies and changing his outlook on the season until he finished with his lowest score of the year, a 9–under 63 on Friday in the BMW Championship that gave him a three-shot lead going into the weekend.

Ryder Cup captain Keegan Bradley did his best to stay in range until making his first bogey of the week on the 18th hole at Castle Pines. He still had a 68 and was in good position.
