Sun City, South Africa (SportsNetwork.com) – Luke Donald saw a 4-shot lead
quickly evaporate on Saturday, but a birdie at the last helped him regain the
lead after three rounds at the Nedbank Golf Challenge.
Donald fired a 3-under 69 at Gary Player Country Club Saturday and he leads by
one shot over a surging Danny Willett. Donald, a seven-time European Tour
winner who last won at the 2012 BMW PGA Championship, finished 54 holes at 13-
under-par 203.
Willett, playing in the penultimate group Saturday, shot up the leaderboard
with a 7-under 65 and he is nipping at Donald’s heels at 12-under 204.
First-round leader Ross Fisher struggled at times in his third round, but a
strong finish helped him end three behind the leader Donald at 10-under 206
through 54 holes. Fisher shot a 2-under 70 in round three.
The next-closest player to the trio of Englishmen is Marcel Siem, who is alone
in fourth at 5-under 211 following a 71 Saturday.
