Zander Lombard moves into Tshwane

 Open picture in Round 3

FROM THE EUROPEAN TOUR WEBSITE
Zander Lombard moved into the clubhouse lead near the end of the third day of the Tshwane Open at Pretoria, South Africa
The 21 year old began his third round six shots off the overnight lead after posting scores of 72 and 67 on Thursday and Friday respectively.
Lombard surged into contention when he covered the front nine in 30 after following pars at the opening five holes with three straight birdies from the sixth before chipping in for an eagle from the edge of the green at the ninth.
And the South African made further gains at the tenth and 12th holes on his way to returning a seven-under-par 63 for an eight-under 54-hole tally of 202 over the par-70 lay-out.
Charl Swartzel (9 under after 14) and Anthony Michael (seven under after 14) have still to finish, at the time of writing.

Overnight leader Michael mixed two birdies with a bogey on his front nine, while Schwartzel, who started the day two shots off the lead, birdied the second before holing his eagle putt at the ninth to join Michael and Lombard at the top of the leaderboard.
