KIAWAH ISLAND, South Carolina (Feb. 26, 2007) -- Doug Clapp of Walpole, Mass. scored an ace today at Osprey Point, helping he and his partner Daniel Russo of Savannah, Georgia to a spot alone at the top of the championship division leaderboard with one round left to play in the amateurgolf.com Kiawah Island Two Man Championship. Clapp, who used a 7-iron to ace the 15th hole at Osprey Point, called his partner Daniel Russo his good luck charm.

"This was my third career hole-in-one, and my second playing with Dan," said Clapp after the round.

The Clapp-Russo team stands at 4-under 140, giving them a narrow one-stroke margin over two teams from Georgia and the midwestern team of Tom Studer (Chicago, IL) and Todd Dickinson (Rochester, MI) who shot the lowest round of the day on Monday, a 66.

In the Net division, brothers Don and Jeff Corken of Kentucky are at 5-under 139, good for a one stroke lead over Lacy Hayes of North Carolina and Ernest Humphreys of Rhode Island. The Hayes-Humphreys team posted a 6-under-par 66, a score that was matched by Californians Mike Casey and Bob Paulson.

Tuesday's final round will be contested at the famed Ocean Course, which was recently ranked the toughest course in the U.S.
