A third-round score of 72 was enough for Calum Hill to take a two-shot lead into the final round of the Bahrain Championship.
The Scot is looking for his third DP World Tour title following previous successes at the 2021 Cazoo Classic and last year’s Joburg Open. He begins the final round on 16 under.
He faces stiff competition from the player immediately beneath him on the leaderboard, Freddy Schott, who is hoping to seal his maiden DP World Tour title and begins on 14 under. The pair make up the final group and tee it up at 12.10pm local time.
