BIRDIE FOR HILL
Excellent from Hill, who hasn’t had his best stuff today. At the par 3 11th, the Scot puts his approach to eight-foot, and he is able to roll it in to share the lead with Garcia at 17-under.

SERGIO LEADS
He hasn’t won on the DP World Tour since 2019, but Garcia leads in Bahrain after Schott misses his bogey putt.
Garcia 17-under, while there’s now a four-way share of second!

COUSSAUD SETS THE TARGET

Ugo Coussaud sets the clubhouse target at 15-under, but it’s a case of what could have been for the Frenchman.
Level-par through eight holes, he goes birdie-eagle-birdie-birdie-birdie through the ninth to the 13th, but a bogey at the 17th means he will, likely, be a few shots shy in Bahrain.

BIG MISTAKE FROM THE LEADER
Wow… after a poor tee shot, Schott goes long of the green at the 11th and is in position Z.
It’s a near-impossible up-and-down for the German, who gets too fancy with his chip shot and it ends up rolling back to his feet.
Faced with an identical chip to the one he just played, it’s a better result for Schott, but he’ll have eight-feet to save bogey.

REED MAKES BIRDIE
He’s had three putts lip out today but, at the par 3 12th, Reed rams it home and moves to 16-under, just two back of leader, Schott, who has gone long of the green at the par 4 11th.

HOTTING UP IN BAHRAIN
It has been an eventful morning in Bahrain, where overnight leader Calum Hill has dropped down the leaderboard following a poor run that included a bogey and double bogey.
Freddy Schott is the new leader, following five birdies and a sole bogey during 10 holes, with the experienced Sergio Garcia also making a move on Sunday, sitting five-under through 12 holes despite an opening bogey.
Schott is 18-under, while Garcia is 17-under. There’s a two-way tie for third at 16-under, which includes Daniel Hillier and Hill. Patrick Reed and Ugo Coussaud are 15-under.
