Langer finished 72 holes at Sahalee with an eight-under 272 to capture his second consecutive major on the Champions Tour. He was coming off a win at last week's Senior British Open.

Couples, the hometown favorite, never recovered from an early triple-bogey at the second hole, where he laid up and then knocked his approach shot into the water.

Second-round leader Bernhard Langer birdied the 18th hole to card a two-under 68 and finish alongside Couples at five-under-par 205.

Couples, who was born in Seattle, was the only player to card a bogey-free round Saturday. His 65 was the low round of the week.

Langer, who is coming off a win last week at the Senior British Open, completed 36 holes at three-under-par 137.

The German is trying to become the first player to win back-to-back majors on the Champions Tour since Tom Watson won the Senior British Open and the JELD- WEN Tradition in 2003.

Vaughan's lone win on the Champions Tour was a playoff victory over John Cook at the 2008 Senior British Open.

Loren Roberts, a four-time major winner on the Champions Tour, and amateur Tim Jackson share second place at two-under 68. Jackson, a two-time U.S. Mid- Amateur champion, was the 36-hole leader last year before fading into a share of 11th.

Langer posted a one-over 72 to finish at five-under-par 279.

The German won a pair of Masters titles on the PGA Tour, but this was his first major championship crown on the Champions Tour.

Chasing his first major on the Champions Tour, Langer finished 54 holes at Carnoustie with a six-under 207.

Corey Pavin shared the 36-hole lead with Langer, but couldn't keep pace, posting a 72 to fall to three-under 210. A tour rookie, Pavin is seeking his first win the 50-and-over circuit.

Pavin and Langer, a first-round co-leader who carded an even-par 71 on Friday, finished 36 holes at four-under 138 at Carnoustie.

Former Masters champion Ian Woosnam shared low round of the day honors on Friday with a four-under 67. He vaulted into a tie for third place with Dan Forsman (71), Larry Mize (70) and Jay Haas (69). The group is knotted at minus-three.

Bruce Vaughan, the 2008 winner, Mark Wiebe and Dan Forsman are knotted in fourth place at three-under 68 at a wind-swept Carnoustie.

Tom Watson, who won his first of five claret jugs at Carnoustie back in 1975, struggled on Thursday with a three-over 74, but is still in the hunt for a fourth Senior Open title.

Mize, 51, is best known for holing a 140-foot chip shot to win the 1987 Masters in a playoff that also featured Greg Norman and Seve Ballesteros.

He was a four-time winner on the PGA Tour, the final two coming in 1993, when he also earned a title on the European Tour. They were Mize's last victories until Sunday.

Cook, a four-time winner on the Champions Tour, finished 36 holes at 12-under- par 132.

Russ Cochran, who shared the first-round lead with Tom Wargo, carded a four- under 68 and is alone in second at minus-11.

Jay Haas, John Cook, James Mason, Jay Don Blake, Joey Sindelar and Tom Purtzer are knotted in third place at six-under 66 at Club de Golf Fontainebleau.

The 67-year-old Wargo was flawless on Friday with seven birdies and no bogeys. He is a four-time winner on the Champions Tour, but hasn't hoisted a trophy since 2000.

Roberts holed a chip shot from in front of the No. 12 green for an eagle that kickstarted a back-nine charge ending with a seven-foot birdie putt at the last hole.

He finished three rounds on the En-Joie course with a 15-under 201, earning $255,000 for his 12th career Champions Tour win and first of the season.

Forsman finished 36 holes at 12-under 132 and is one stroke clear at En-Joie Golf Course.

Brad Bryant was tied for the lead until a bogey at the closing hole. He finished with a five-under 67 and is alone in second place at 11-under-par 133.

Levi is a two-time winner on the Champions Tour, but hasn't won since 2004.

Dan Forsman, who shared fifth place last year, and Brad Bryant, who finished solo fourth last year, both carded six-under 66s to share second place.

Price finished with a 14-under 199 on the Glen Oaks course to beat Champions Tour rookie Tommy Armour III by four shots.

It was Price's third senior victory overall and second in 2010 after he won the Liberty Mutual Legends of Golf with Mark O'Meara in April.

Price and Armour, who had a two-under 69 on Saturday, are knotted at 10-under 132 at Glen Oaks Country Club.

Don Pooley also had a six-under 65 in round two and is alone in third place at minus-nine.

That score matched the course record at Glen Oaks Country Club, which was originally set by John Bland in 2002.

Armour isn't afraid to go low. He owns the PGA Tour 72-hole record with a 254 en route to victory at the 2003 Texas Open.

Lehman hit the fairway with his tee shot, then knocked his approach to the par-four 18th within 15 feet of the hole. He two-putted for a par after his birdie try hung on the edge of the cup.

Couples and Frost made it easy for Lehman.

Lehman carded a one-under 71 to join Jay Don Blake in the lead at six-under- par 210. Blake, who shot two-under 70 in round three, last won on the PGA Tour back in 1991.

Second-round leader Fred Couples struggled to a three-over 75 to slide into a share of third place. Couples' round included three birdies, four bogeys and a double-bogey.

Couples, already a three-time winner this season, completed the first 36 holes at seven-under-par 137.

Tom Kite carded his second straight three-under 69 and is alone in second place at minus-six. Former British Open champion Tom Lehman managed a one- under 71 to finish in third at five-under-par 139.

Langer, who has topped the Champions Tour money list the last two years, collected his ninth and 10th Champions Tour wins earlier this season. Freeman hasn't won anywhere since 1998, when he collected two titles on the Nationwide Tour.

Tom Lehman got within one of the lead as he went birdie-eagle-birdie from the 15th, but he bogeyed the last to shoot 68. He was joined in third place at minus-four by Brad Bryant, the 2007 U.S. Senior Open champion.

Forsman, 51, finished at 20-under 196 and won comfortably over Joe Ozaki (66) and Peter Senior (68) at the Robert Trent Jones Trail at Ross Bridge.

On Saturday, Forsman established a new course record with a 10-under 62 and his 196 total missed Hale Irwin's 2001 tournament record by a single stroke.

Clampett, who was one of four co-leaders after the first round, finished his second round on the Ross Bridge course with a 15-under 129 to set the 36-hole tournament scoring record.

He took a one-shot lead over Dan Forsman, who broke the single-round course record with a 10-under 62 on Saturday.

Russ Cochran, Bobby Clampett and Peter Senior also carded 65s on the Ross Bridge course to join Sindelar in first place. All four co-leaders are seeking their first Champions Tour win.

David Frost, David Peoples and R.W. Eaks each shot a six-under 66, while Tom Kite, Ben Crenshaw and Corey Pavin led 11 players tied at 67.

Eger finished three rounds on the Fallen Oak course with an 11-under 205, beating Tommy Armour III by a shot.

It was the third Champions Tour win for Eger and first since Aug. 21, 2005 when he titled at the Seattle stop. It also marked the first time in eight months that he finished inside the top 10.
