Hey there, time traveller!

FORT WORTH, Texas — With US$12.7 million in career earnings on the PGA Tour, Tim Clark has the dubious distinction of winning the most money without winning an event.
Now he’s got a great chance to let someone else carry that burden.
Clark shot a four-under 66 on Saturday in the third round of the Crowne Plaza Invitational to take a two-stroke lead into the final round.
The 33-year-old South African has been near the top of the leaderboard all week, then finally moved into first place all by himself with a birdie on 11.
After a string of pars, he birdied 18 to dip to 17-under 193 and stretch his lead. That kind of finish also might be the momentum-extender to help him snap his 0-for-183 skid.
“It’s tough to win out here; everyone knows it,” said Clark, 63rd on the tour’s career money list. “Hopefully, I do get that win sometime and it makes things easier. That’s all I can hope for.”
Many greens are new and soaked by a rainy spring, leaving them soft — just the way players like it.
Jason Day has capitalized with three straight rounds of 65, and Steve Marino shot a tournament-best 62 on Saturday, moving them into a tie for second place at 15 under with Steve Stricker (69).
Day and Marino also are winless on the PGA Tour.
