OWINGS MILLS, Md. — While Brandt Jobe was ripping up the golf course, the unflappable Bernhard Langer steadfastly remained in the hunt.

Sure enough, by the time the third round of the Constellation Senior Players Championship drew to a close Saturday, Langer’s unspectacular bogey-free 6-under 66 was good enough to put him atop the leaderboard.

Langer finished the day at 18 under, good for a one-shot lead over Jobe.

Jobe bogeyed Nos. 16 and 17 and settled for a 65. Corey Pavin (71) and Scott McCarron (69) were tied for third at 12 under.

The 59-year-old Langer trailed by two shots after Jobe birdied No. 15, but he made up three strokes over the next two holes to take control of the major tournament he’s won the last three years.
