K.J. Choi shot a 71 to finish at 266, three strokes ahead of Rory Sabbatini (68).
After a roug start — a double-bogey on the par-4 No. 3 and a bogey on the par-3 No. 7 — McLachlin settled down to birdie the par-5 No. 9 and the par-4 No. 12. He sank a four-foot birdie putt on No. 18.
McLachlin, a Punahou School and UCLA alum, was the only golfer with Hawai'i ties to play the weekend.
McLachlin's best finish on the PGA Tour was a tie for fifth at the Turning Stone Resort Championship at Verona, N.Y., last September. It was his fourth start in the Sony Open after finishing tied for 59th in 2006 and missing the cut in 2000 and 2007.
