AT&T National 2012: Tiger Woods and Top Contenders Going into Final Round

Tiger Woods is one of the top contenders to win the 2012 AT&T National as the tournament enters its final round of play on Sunday.

The action at the Congressional will be fun to watch unfold since there are so many players within striking distance of the No. 1 spot on the leaderboard.

Let's look at the top contenders to win the tournament entering the final round.

Bo Van Pelt

Bo Van Pelt is tied for second on the leaderboard at six under par and is an experienced player who knows how to deal with the pressure of being a contender in the final round.

After a horrible second round in which he shot a 73, Van Pelt shot a 67 on Saturday that included five birdies and no bogeys.

If Van Pelt can have another error-free round on Sunday, he could certainly win the tournament.

Brendon de Jonge

Brendon de Jonge is the leader at seven under par heading into the fourth round. He has been one of the most consistent players at the tournament.

De Jonge has made three birdies and one bogey in each of the past two rounds. He is also putting very well, which must continue if he wants to hold on to his lead.

Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods has played consistently well in all phases of his game at Congressional this week and there's no reason to believe that will change on Sunday.

The challenge for Woods will be to putt strongly and keep hitting the green from the fairway. If Woods remains near the top of the leaderboard when he's on the back nine, he will be the favorite to win.
