Late Surge Puts Baird Ahead In New Orleans
Baird sank a 20-foot putt at the last to finish eight under on 136, one stroke better than Australian Peter Lonard and fellow American Jay Williamson.
Lonard surged into the lead after a run of three birdies in four holes but bogeys at the 15th, 17th and 18th forced him to settle for a 70.
The Australian told reporters he would try to focus on how he played during the first 14 holes.
"Otherwise, I'll go and commit suicide," Lonard said before heading to the practice range to correct errant shots that went right of target.
Tied on six-under 138 were holder Nick Watney (67), who took only 21 putts, fellow American Tommy Armour III (68) and Japan's Shigeki Maruyama (68).
South African Tim Clark, who began his round on the back nine, produced a dazzling finish to move into contention.
Clark birdied the seventh and eighth before recording a hole-in-one at the 210-yard, par-three ninth for a six-under 66. He was among a group of 10 players on 139.
"Certainly the best finish I've ever had to a round of golf with a one," Clark told reporters. "Hit a six-iron in there. It hit soft and disappeared."
