Henrik Stenson holds a commanding lead over Willett in the Race to Dubai
"It's been a tricky few weeks, but today the head was in a better place and we just scored well around a course that we know well," said Willett, winner at the Gary Player Country Club 12 months ago.
"We put it in positions because we know these flags pretty good where you can score for great shots. You need to make sure that you are not on the wrong side and we were able to do that and hole a few putts, and it was nice to finally get a low score in there.
"I'm still not hitting it great, and we're still working on it. It's still not quite where I want it to be, but this is a golf course where you can't open your shoulders and really have a go at things. And if you're not quite in a great place, it's not a nice place to be at especially on this course.
Stenson is projected to have a lead of over half a million points over Willett heading into next week's season-ending DP World Tour Championship, but the Swede is taking nothing for granted.

Stenson had some issues during the third round before salvaging a 69
.
"It was good to see Danny play well. It's a really good score to shoot five-under out there in these conditions. He's had a tough couple of months, so sooner or later he'll find his form again and it seems like this might be the moment."
